How big is this black bear?
#1
Hi folks I am wondering how big this bear is that showed up on my trailcam? I am not baiting for any bears but he happened along. I am thinking he is looking for newborn fawns to eat..

I showed this to aguide up here who is figuring this bear will prolly run handy to 350lbs or maybe a little bigger. He is doing his judging by the ears on it as well as the size of the front legs. Here is a pic of a bear that did try to eat my trailcam back in 09. This is the first time I have realy used my trailcam since then as it kept getting moisture in it.I now use a c-clamp on it to keep it water tight. Anyways here is a pic of a sow around 200+ lbs with her 2 year old cubs. Notice how big the ears look compared to that short video..

It looks pretty good for a spring bear. The ears were sitting fairly wide on the head. Come fall, it's going to be a lot fatter. Definetly a shooter.
I hope we both have luck with our Moose draws!

Looks like a good male around 300. Wide spread ears that look round like a cookie showing that he is an adult. Hard to get a true size because I didn't get to see how low his belly hung. Beautiful bear.
