This seems to be a thing, which is to be expected when a 180 lb human goes into a fetal position when being attacked by 800 lbs of angry bear.
The ferocity of these attacks as recounted by survivors is chilling.
And they always seem to have massive scalp injuries if not actual teeth holes in the skull, which makes me think that is an attacking technique by bears.

All predators go for the head if possible.
One of the city commissioners in my suburban Seattle town got attacked at his weekend mountain house.
Exactly the same attack method, and a female bear, as I recall.
His scalp and skull injuries were horrific.
He looked like an extra from The Walking Dead for the first year.
I have not seen a photograph since, but I heard he has had multiple surgeries and looks much better.
Tragically, he was the only Conservative business owner on the Commission, and he started marching to the Left almost instantly after the attack.

Motorcycle helmets now required to be worn at all times in national parks, even if you don’t have a motorcycle, (along with your mask). (bicycle helmets are not good enough. /s

If your skull is small enough the the bear can fit your head in its mouth it will crush your skull and pick you up by the head and shake you until your neck snaps. Crude but effective. Of course if you spray it with some pepper it will not do this... /s
