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.

Just passing by (cough, cough) and decided for a visit.

Interesting post, Shadow. I assume the 3 largest boars (1519, 1483 and 1245 pounds) were shot in fall? Any pictures available to enable us to compare a bear of that weight with a human?

Still have this one I found in the National Geographic a long time ago. This male was 900 pounds (408,24 kg.):

I assume, that biggest have to be shot in fall, it wasn´t said there. But I think, that only that lightest one of these three mentioned would be possible also in summertime if big one. I hope to get more information about these bears, but we will see. 

And no, no photos. Most impressive photos, which I have seen are these ones, which I think, that many have seen. But most of these photos are taken in a way, that making bear look as big as possible.... still interesting photos to look. Here is a link if someone haven´t seen this gallery. https://www.wideopenspaces.com/gallery-h...ears-pics/

It is a pity, that hunters take photos in a way, that always putting animal in front of hunter and twisting scales making it difficult to make accurate comparisons. But there are some measurements too in that gallery which can be interesting.

I add here another link. If someone is interested, here is a story behind one of the bears in that gallery, "Bob Fromme bear". Interesting article even though pity that these bears are hunted. But at least there is strict control for that hunting. http://www.bowhuntingmag.com/editorial/g...ook/310963
