Video: Huge Coastal Brown Bear Takes a Tumble

The RAW Outdoors presents a successful bear hunt on the Alaskan Peninsula in which hunters try their hand at bagging a true monster. According to the video, the bear measures 10 feet and four inches long and was shot at a range of 340 yards.

Brown bears are the most widely distributed of all bears and one of its subspecies, the Kodiak, rivals the polar bear for size. The most famous member of the brown bears is of course the grizzly. Highly adaptable, the grizzly can live across a wide range of environments across in the United States. Their coastal cousins, however, seem to fare the best on a steady diet of spawning salmon and other fatty foods. Coastal brown bears are not unknown to weigh close to 1,500 pounds.
