Learn the primary food source in the area for the time you will be hunting.

I would assume that berries would be big part. What else do they eat?

Bears will eat about anything, but prefer certain things over others. Wild fruits, grasses, flowers, rodents, etc. In some areas they like onions and in others they like acorns. You will need to learn what is available and when it is available.
