Look how stiff the legs are and if you zoom in you can see the eye's have lost their gloss so it's been dead for a while. I bet that animal was not recovered the same day it was shot and it is bloated as a result.

The trailer hitch on the truck looks like it's just about in the grass. I don't see any glaring inconsistencies that would tell me it was photo-shopped but I bet the trucks rear wheels are in a hole or depression lowering the bed to a level that makes the bear look much larger than it is. Having loaded more than a few whole animals into truck beds, I can say for certain that it's much easier to do when the tailgate is close to the ground.

They can get pretty big, although that bear does look like its been dead for a while.
This picture has always amazed me.

It looks pretty good but when you zoom in the pixels are much larger on the bear then they are on the rest of the picture.

The first pick looks like it is either a fake or the animal has been dead a few days and rigor has set in. The animal is boated, stiff, and the eyes have lost their luster compared to a fresh kill. Just my opinion.
