According to Michel Pastoureau the largest brown bears in the Roman arenas were coming from Carphatians, Dinaria and Caledonia. Its known that Carphatian brown bear from Romania even today is among the largest Eurasian bears, but for me is new that bears from Scotland (than called Caledonia) who has disapeared a centuries ago were so large. This means probably that Scotish rivers were plenty of salmon, otherwise have no explanation. Reply
