Those are quite huge. Those two with that man in the same photo look like to be approximately 300-330 cm tall. Was there any information about it how tall? That first also looks of course amazingly big.

When looking at these photos and thinking about old stories claiming that a wolverine would have killed a polar bear..... Impossible for me to take those stories seriously. Back "in good old days" story tellers weren´t saving their wild imagination.

Nice photos!!!

I can't zoom in enough to read the plaque but assuming the man is 6' tall, I'd guess both of those bears are easily over 11'

 I measured as good as I could from photo, my estimation based on those measurements is, that if that man is 180 cm tall (approximately 6 feet), then those bears would be 300 cm or a bit over, approximately 10 feet. Which is already huge. From same kind of measurements, which I have made from pictures having different kind of brown bears and tigers, lions etc., these polar bears are clearly tallest. Of course from photos it´s always difficult. But in this photo that man is standing really side by side with these polar bears, even though he is on the floor and bears on stands.

That polar bear alone in that first photo is very interesting. Do you have any information about it?

Nothing on him but unfortunately the mount and ladder are cropped.
I got these from this page https://www.facebook.com/groups/1568917803373653/?fref=nf
"Trophy rooms of the world"
But I don't want to contribute to their page by asking questions although I do find some of their photos interesting.
But if you or someone else does, feel free. Reply
