They do here in PA. I had one chase a doe to me years ago. I was sitting on the ground and a doe ran in about 30 yards and stopped behind a tree. I was just waiting until it stepped out and I was going to shoot it. All of a sudden it bolted straight down the mountain and I stood up thinking I could shoot it if it stopped. I heard some noise and looked to see a large black bear looking down the mountain where the deer just ran. I had my Winchester 7mm WSM off safe and the bear looked at me and let out a huff, then bolted up the mountain through a bunch of beech scrub. It happened so fast that I didn't react at all.
