Had this bear on my trail cam yesterday. Not a big bear but a very pretty bear. I see a lot of color phase bears where I hunt. As I was leaving my hunting area yesterday a giant chocolate bear ran in front of my truck. Never gave me a shot. Having a great years as I have seen 8 bears by spot & stalk but have not popped a cap yet.
Thanks, Kirk

Hey Rev, Ya, I would guess 125-150. Bears don't weigh up as much as most folks think. I really think it is a 4 footer. And thinking a small boar. What do you think???
Thanks, Kirk

Hey Furtaker, What state are you in? There are many, many bears here with that color.I see more color phase than blacks.
Thanks, Kirk

Technically I'm an Okie but spend most of my fall in southwest Colorado where that pic came from.

Its the same way where we hunt I've only seen a handful of black bears, most of them that I've seen are either blonde, dark brown, or cinnamon, I even saw one last year that was full blown RED

Hey Furtaker, I was bear hunting with my daughter about 8 years ago & we jumped a bear that was the color of a hereford cow. Red as could be. My hunting buddy seen a mouse colored bear in this area years ago as well. They sure are fun to see.
Thanks, Kirk
