Best Answer

An adult male Kodiak - Alaskan brown - bear stands 3.5-4.5 ft (exceptionally up to 5 feet-1.52 m) tall at the shoulder when it is standing on all four legs. When standing fully upright on its hind legs, a large male could reach a height of 10 feet (3 m). When hunters refer to a 10-foot (3.0 m) bear, they are estimating the size of the skinned-out hide by adding the length (nose to base of tail) and the width (tip of left center front claw to tip of right center front claw) and dividing that sum by two. This measurement is extremely variable due to hide shrinkage or stretching, rendering it impossible to use as a reliable way to compare bears.
