There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Girth Comparaison of Animals

Yeah, well, I believe that a grizzly just might have a tiger beat in girth at least by a few inches.

The California Grizzly - bear in mind - from the collections of the Bancroft Library:

On a poster pictured in this book by P.T. Barnum: Great California Bear!! - Weighing 1988 Pounds! Standing 4 feet 6 inches in height; girth 4 feet around the neck, 7 feet around the body; and 14 inches between the ears. The Biggest Bear in America!

The Bear Almanac by Gary Brown.

Northern Montana, near Choteau: In May 2007 a 750-pound male grizzly bear was trapped ( for research ). Also very large for the spring, the bear, if it had gained normal weight, again considering its habitat and time of year, would have weighed 900 pounds by fall. With a length of 7 feet, 6 inches, 3.5 inch claws, and a 4-foot neck circumference, the bear is the second-largest grizzly recorded in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem.

For purposes of comparison, skull dimensions were
considered ultimate by 15 years of age and body measurements
were considered ultimate by 10 years of age.
The value for percentage of each ultimate body dimension
was determined by dividing the mean size of each
age-class by the mean value of the ultimate body size.
For example, mean body length of 6-month-old
females, 46.9 cm, divided by 123.4 cm, the mean size of
the 10+-year-old (ultimate size) females, is 38 percent.

The largest captured male (784) was 13 years and the
largest captured female (825) was 15 years old. Differences
in their respective sizes were as follows: weight,
390-275 kg; height at shoulder, 152-130 cm; total
length, 264-228 cm; hind-foot length, 44-38 cm;
neck circumference, 90-80 cm; chest girth, 159-157 cm;
body length, 140-127 cm; skull length, 473-403 mm;
and zygomatic width, 311-251 mm. When all measurements
were combined, mean total body size of 5 males
over 9 years of age was 19 percent larger and their mean
body weight was 88 percent heavier than the sizes and
weights of 25 females of comparable age.
*Note: Grizzly boar: neck girth - 90 cm ( 35.43 inches ) - chest girth 159 cm ( 5 feet 3 inches ).
*Note: Kodiak bears are bigger.

This inland grizzly measured at neck girth 3 feet 11 inches and chest girth 5 feet 10.5 inches.
