Sounds opposite to what I've always been taught; that bear is high fat like most omnivores. The settlers used bear grease to lube axles, grease their boots, repel insects, etc, etc.
Is it that bear meat is lean but the body fat on a bear is separate...that would explain the cooking instructions and that the fat - being separate - is easy to get at and render?
