Description

Alaskan grizzly bear skull replica measures 14.5 x 7.5 x 7.5 inches. The Ursus arctos horribilis skull is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of a California Academy of Sciences specimen. 2-part skull (separate cranium and mandible). 1:1 scale. Made in USA.

The Alaskan grizzly bear lives on the islands of southwest Alaska. People also call it the Kodiak brown bear. It is one of the largest bears alive today. The other giant is the polar bear.

This bear looks very similar to other brown bear types. The main difference is its massive size. Most common brown bears weigh between 254 and 794 pounds. The Alaskan grizzly bear easily reaches 660 to 1,320 pounds. Some big males even weigh over 1,500 pounds. Still, its diet and lifestyle match other brown bears.

Humans rarely met these bears in ancient times. Today, people meet them more often because the human population is growing. These meetings include humans hunting the bears for fur or meat. Less often, they include bear attacks on humans.
