"Japan has more fatal bear attacks than the United States. It is a surprising fact, given that Japan’s population is only 36% of the USA population. The USA has about ten times as many American black bears as Japan has Asiatic black bears. The USA has about 3-4 times as many brown bears as Japan has brown bears on Hokkaido Island. ... Japan has one of the lowest rates of firearms ownership in the world, while the USA has the highest rate of firearms ownership in the world." Makes sense to me. The bears that attack humans have mostly been killed off and the the offsprings of the ones left rarely attack humans.

Alternate explanation:
5.2 million people live in Hokkaido, 740,000 people in Alaska.
Bears live further away from people in the U.S.
Hokkaido is roughly the size of Ireland.
