If I get a vote, I'm going with it's a grizzly. And aren't those claws a little long? They don't look like they've gotten much use. What's the chance this was once with the traveling circus?

The world record black bear is from NC correct?? Something like 900 lbs?

Anyways, that's a huge GRIZZLY!

Craven Co is near the beach right?

It's funny...the bears are big at the beach and the deer are small. Things that make you go hmmmmm.
