How tall is the biggest bear in the world?

Answer 1

The worlds largest grizzly bear ever encountered was killed by a forest services worker in Alaska. The bear weighed over 1600 pounds (over 730 kg) and stood 12'6" at the shoulders. When standing upright on its hind legs the bear would have been able to see over the roof of a single story house, or into the windows of a second story house. The average man would stand only to its belly button. It took the forest worker 12 rounds from a semi-automatic rifle to bring the beast down.

Forest services workers tracked back along the path of the grizzly and discovered the remains of one of its last meals, a male hiker. His firearm was found nearby. Upon inspection of the bear's stomach contents they found human remains from two people, which means the bear had attacked and most likely killed another person in the previous 72 hours.
