Is it a polar bear or kodiak bear because I watched on a show that the largest species of bear is a polar bear, but I learned somewhere that the largest species is a kodiak bear. Please PUT YOUR SOURCE

The polar bear has an average weight of 900 to 1,500 pounds and is considered the world's largest bear with the brown bear, averaging 500 to 900 pounds a close second.
That being said, the largest dead bear was a Kodiak. It went around 2500 pounds and was 14 feet tall. The biggest dead polar bear was a mere 2200 pounds and a shorty at12 feet tall.

The polar bear is the largest. But the Kodiak (a subspecies of the brown bear) which is native to Alaska, is at a close second.

It's a close call but I found that the polar bear is generally considered the biggest.

It's the Polar bear, but Kodiak bears (grizzlies) aren't going to be working for QUANTAS anytime soon either.
