It would make sense if it were a bear in order to put some parts of the webisodes into the actuacl show. They also got mentioned several times in Season 3.

So, it would be more like bringing in stuff they mentioned on the show.... :P Its definitely a Bear skinned Berserker, I just finished watching all of season 3, I always like watch the previous season of a show right before the next season start so that I'm more aware of everything that's going on and in the episode Echo house Chris Argent ask Derek has he ever heard of the berserkers and Derek replied that they wore the skin of bears to channel their ferocity
