Put the head on it's own layer and use the eraser to remove the areas you don't want.

You're using Photoshop CS5 for this and don't know how to remove a solid colour...wonder where you got your copy :)

Like hawkeye said keep the bears head on it's own layer (if it's not) You could also use the Magic Wand tool to select and remove the black around the bears head...

Vertus Fluid Mask is pretty useful, check it out on google, could easily remove the black background from the bear head.

Once you have removed the black background of the bear it will automatically have the background of the real life image. Assuming you have the layered file in front of you and I am.

No plugins are needed, just look for how, here's something to get you started:

remove black

I would suggest a technique but depending upon your experience and the like, it may be better if you could choose for yourself.

Don't listen to those jokers about layers and such.Leave the black around the bears head,it looks fine.
