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.

[b]I am interested in this too. The Kodiak brown bears are simply a single population of brown bears, therefore it is fair to compare them with a single population of polar bears. We have learned here that the polar bear in general averages roughly 383 kg ( 850 to 900 pounds ) and measures roughly 2.36 m long ( 7 ft 9 in ) and stands roughly 1.21 m high at the shoulders ( 48 inches ).
The Foxe Basin polar bear averages roughly 590 kg ( 1300.7 pounds ). I am interested in his height and length as well. Also, what are the average weight and measurements of a mature male Kodiak bear? Also, a mature male Alaskan brown bear?
