i think the largest black bear is like 787 ibs on record in Newfoundland
Did you even read any of the posts? It was already stated that there have been a few bear on record over 800 lbs taken in Pa. It also cracks me up when people say things like "that's way too big to be a Pa bear"

I mean, what factual evidence do people have that prove Pa has small bears. I have seen plenty that prove the opposite but none that proves we are a small bear state. I guess I have to agree with Mossy to an extent...Mitch probably did make the rounds through Pa but as he was stocking those yotes and lions he must have been stocking monster bear from Canada...I mean how else could those boars have got here, there's no way they grew up in Pa
