He looks tiny and skinny to me.
My completely nonexpert opinion wonders if he'd break 100 pounds.

Young bear. I’d say 125-150, max.

He looks like a young bear to me also. My guess is he is closer to 100-125 lbs

He looks anorexic for a bear this is time of year.
But I am no expert.

Tough angle to judge from but because you can see grass between the front legs and also between the front right paw and back left leg, it seems to have a very small belly. I’d agree with the guesses of about 100.
