The link says taken in NJ. Skull measured at 23 and 5/16. A 23 in. Skull gets you into B&C for Grizzly bears. So the picture shows that there are bears in the woods of the eastern US that are just as large as an large Alaskan grizzly.

Another interesting thing about this is that the Governor banned bear hunting on public land. Land that was bought and paid for by hunters. Still, they keep shooting huge bears in New Jersey on private land. The fact that he is so violently opposed to bear huntign and then they killed the new world record right under his nose after he tried to ban it from the state is one of the best "IN YOUR FACE, ANTI!" moment hunters have had in quite a while.

Big bears are fairly common here. Lots of them between 175 and 300 pounds.
