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.

In average polars are taller for sure, again as far as I remember all what I have read about these bears. But both should be able to reach 10 feet approximately when looking the biggest ones. Anyway it would really be interesting to find something like that. I for sure think, that biggest kodiaks are the most robust bears there are. On the other hand it would be interesting to see this kind of comparison made by professionals. That is the reason I posted that and asked.
Record polar bears are heavier by tens of pounds and taller by inches. We are talking wild specimens of each. But, I would say Kodiak bears have greater upper-body strength including shoulders, neck, and broader skull. Polar bears have extra fat which adds pounds.
