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.

I hadn't given that any thought, but When comparing a Kodiak bear with a polar bear, the best time to weigh a Kodiak bear is late Autumn when his fat ratio is closer to the polar bear's. Of course, while the size difference between Kodiak bears and polar bears is not a tremendous difference, as a species in general, the polar bear is without contest much bigger than a typical brown bear - Ursus arctos.
Edit and add: About ages of brown bears added into the average size for full-grown males - eight is less than nine.
