A bear allegedly weighed on a cattle scale over 150 years ago is another thing that should be doubted, we don't know the accuracy of said scale, the measuring method nor if it was actually weighed.

This isn´t directly comparable thing, but made me to remember Kamchatka bear Peter the Great at Orsa bear park in Sweden. Many Swedish newspapers had big headlines, that they got a 1000 kg bear, when he arrived. It took quite some time to get information from the park, but they finally told, that in reality he was 570 kg when he arrived there. That information is a bit difficult or maybe even impossible to find if not asking from the zoo.

Who knows if 100 years from now someone notices some old headlines and thinks "wow... a 1000 kg bear". And if zoo records are lost at that time.... Reply
