Hello,

From these pics can anyone with more experience estimate the size of this bear?

I am pretty sure he is a "shooter", either way I am going to try to shoot him!

-thanks

on 280+lbs as well

I was thinking around 200, if it comes in at 280 or 300 i think thats a good bear for washington state.

For WA state would shoot. Would guess based upon body composition in pics around 225-250 lbs

good luck

x2...but shoot her (I would lean to this being a sow) and enjoy the steaks.

man boys i have put my hands on some 150 pound bears before and my first bear was right at that size. around 150 i think that bear is way better then 150

and i am not a 100% sure it is not a sow. but i am leaning towards boar

Well there is one sure way to find out.

On the note of Sow Vs Boar....

We have massive bear activity here over the last week, and there is another set that comes, a smaller bear that looks more like a dog, and this bear has a cub, these two are never around when this one is there, thats why i think this is a Boar.

We have about 8 of these cams, on trails and all over our area, all all the time stamps match up, these bears just dont hang out together.

that bear is young...has a narrow head, tall ears, long pointy nose. I might be wrong, I'm no pro, but he looks small and young to me.

jackelope · « **Reply #12 on:** August 01, 2010, 09:36:34 AM »

p.s. shoot it if you want...it's an average bear I think. kill it and eat it!! and be proud.

Not Bad... You can shoot if you like to... Not for me and I will let him grow.... I will pass and look for 500 to 600 lbs again

somewhere!!!

That Bear has pointy dog ears, Its in pretty good shape but its a 200 lb Bear max.

Michelle_Nelson · « **Reply #16 on:** August 01, 2010, 04:15:07 PM »

Not much over 200lbs if he goes that much. Still a shooter.

The snout is to long and slender to be a "large" bear. I would say an adult shooter for sure though.
