that second bear is a tank! :yike: He lumbers around like a grizz, going to be huge by fall.  Hopefully you find him!

 That cinnamon is huge! Wait til October to kill that one. Probably won't be any good eating. Relatively small head for his size. (WA genetics jinx) His value is in the sheer square ft of rug! He looks heavily rubbed and I'm guessing he won't fill in until end of September at the earliest. He'd be a great trophy if you've got a wall solely for him. :chuckle:

Your analysis is spot on.  His head is relatively small for his body size but he is a giant!  I have a perfect wall for him in my house though!  Now it's just a matter of finding him during season!!!
