how tall are polar bears

Adult polar bears are usually about 1–1.5 meters (3.3–5 feet) tall at the shoulder when on all fours, and large males can reach a bit over 3 meters (around 10 feet) tall when standing up on their hind legs. Very exceptional males may get close to 3.5–4 meters (11–13 feet) tall when fully upright, but those giants are rare and not the norm.
