Let's go back to back and see who is taller.

Kodiak bear (Ursus Arctos Middendorffi) Taken with Sigma 500mm handheld. This was the second bear that I snuck up on in Alaska. She was a big female digging for clams when the wind changed and she smelled me. In all honesty I was hoping she would fake charge some so I could get some cool looking shots but she just kind of walked off and out of sight. At the time I did not have the grit to go chase after her.
