Wolves, Bears, etc. Multi-hex?

Should a large standing bear be a three-hexer?

I prefer to keep them the same. This lets me maintain my illusion that TFT uses 1.5 to 2 meter hexes (which fits the 10 hex movement rate over 5 second turns, the missile ranges and the absence of size changes for prone figures in the original Melee book) rather than the later heresy of 1.33m..
