Best Answer

The strongest is hard to say, but in recent years the largest black bears in North America have come from the coastal plain of North Carolina, where males commonly top 600 pounds, and a world record 880 pound bear was killed there. In NC, there are two populations of black bear, one in the mountains, the other on the coastal plain. Although the exact same species, the coastal bears average around 100 pounds heavier than the mountain bears. The reason is thought to be the enormous amount of soybeans eaten by the coastal population.
