Enough with the "fan-boy" spin! If you are interested in the DETAILS and FACTS to these other similar data (they will be posted later) this is your one time-stop thread for answers. Stay tuned for updates ......

Enough with the "fan-boy" spin! If you are interested in the DETAILS and FACTS to these other similar data (they will be posted later) this is your one time-stop thread for answers. Stay tuned for updates ...... “ Size and Weight. Size varies greatly across the North American range, among sex and age classes of bears, and seasonally. Body masses from various populations are reviewed in the Interagency Grizzly Bear compendium (LeFranc et al. 1987) and supplemented with additional information (McLellan 1994). These records illustrate variation in body mass among populations (Table 26.1 ). Brown bear occupying coastal habitats of Alaska and British Columbia are the largest representative of the specie in North America.” Source: Schwartz CC, Miller SD, Haroldson MA (2003) Grizzly bear. In: Feldhammer GA, Thompson BC, Chapman JA (eds) Wild mammals of North America. Biology, management, and conservation, 2nd edn. Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore, pp 556–586.

Density dependent population regulation of brown bears. In: Taylor, M. (Ed.), Density Dependent Population Regulation in Black, Brown, and Polar Bears.

First, there are a handful of other threads which need attention/updating.
