One of my Inuit buddies shot this polar bear just this spring. Anyway since there is sometimes debate about the size of an animal because of how a picture is taken etc... to make it look bigger and so on I figured it would maybe be neat to try this with the gun in the photo as a reference and right next to the bear. I'll reveal the size after a few guesses...

I say 8ft 9 inches nose to tall. Does not look like one of the giant polar bears to me but that is a bad pic to judge from.

Hi EGS
I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
