The largest mammal in Canada is the Grizzly, a member of the Brown Bear family. An adult male can weigh from 400 to 790 pounds and females, from 290 to 440 pounds. They have an average length of 6.5 to 7 feet. Weight can vary according to age and location. For example, in the Yukon, adult female grizzlies can weigh as little as 220 pounds while a coastal male could top the scales at around 900 pounds.

The beaver is the largest Canadian rodent. Adult specimens can weigh over 25 kg (55 lb). Its prehistoric ancestor Castoroides ohioensis had a length up to 2.5 m (8.2 ft) and an estimated weight of 60-100 kg (130-220 lbs). It lived in North America during the Pleistocene epoch, and went extinct 12,000 years ago at the end of the last Ice Age.
