Is a polar bear stronger than a grizzly bear?

Answer 1

The largest bears on the planet are found on Kodiak Island, Alaska. They are Kodiak Brown Bears and they are hugh. I lived on Kodiak island and have seen many of them in the wild. They are magnificant to watch from a distance. Yes they are stronger than a grizzly. The grizzly is the inland brown bear, same species, different race.

In addition:

Kodiak bears are the larges sub-species of brown bear. They are about the same size as polar bears.

Answer 2

Yes, because a polar bear is much larger and powerful in size: Polar bears weigh between 600 and 1200 lbs, whereas grizzly bears average between 500 and 800 lbs. Polar bears can hunt and kill large walruses and even drag a dead beluga out of the water onto the ice while grizzly bears have only few difficulties with killing bison, especially cows and young calves. They do have a much higher difficulty killing bull bison, though.

Both are very powerful, but the polar bear may be slightly stronger than the inland race of brown bear known as the grizzly..But the Brown bears of the Alaska coasts are big or bigger than polar bears, and are just as strong.
