Have this bear coming into my bait in Idaho. How much do you think it weighs?

I'm going to say 250ish.........looking at the head and ears I'm saying only about a 5 footer or maybe a touch less.........however....it is a fatty indeed. Look at the gut on that thing. You are feeding them well. How does it compare to any others coming in?

Look how fat this bear looks on my trail camera from last year, also on a bear bait in Idaho:





I was like wow that's a nice fat bear, but she barely breaks 100 pounds.

Wow! I guess that goes to show how big a 300lber must really be. I do have another smaller one that I can use for comparison. Ill post it up later.

Here is another bear coming in. I think he is much larger than the one shown at the beginning of this thread. Any thought as to size. I think he is at least 250.
