Siberian brown bear
The Siberian brown bear is one of the most widespread brown bear subspecies in Russia, inhabiting vast and remote areas throughout the Siberian wilderness. This subspecies is characterized by a thick, dense coat with long soft fur. The coloration typically features a dark brown collar and noticeably darker legs, giving the animal a powerful and distinctive appearance.
Adult males typically reach 8 feet in length, with exceptional bears exceeding 8,5 feet. This makes the Siberian brown bear an important and highly respected trophy species within the Russian hunting system.
The Siberian brown bear offers a true wilderness predator hunting experience in one of the most remote regions of Russia, combining strong trophy potential with authentic Siberian expedition conditions.
