I'm no expert on sizing bear but this thing looks pretty darn big.

Impossible to judge weight without some sort of reference... It’s certainly a big fat bear but it appears to have sow like characteristics.

Yep , need a barrel to judge the height, but she is eating a lot of twinkies . Forrest

Ok, tell me how you know it's a girl bear? Is it the small head and narrow snout?

Around 350-375#'s I'd say.

Wrist size and how it tapers down front shoulder size compared to hind side...and pigeon toe look are just a few things that can decipher sex in photos...

Big enough to keep it on the distance! I'm glad I have never encountered a bear in the wilderness

The first one is tough to judge he’s fat but looks short, Shugs two r heavier in the 5-6 range on the low end I would say there dandies all of them.

Picture from Stickit.... I'd say that is a fat old sow. Skinny ankles, dainty feet, short stout body, no big defining shoulders. Nice healthy looking sow though I would say
