The famed British sportsman known as the "Old Shekarry" wrote of how an Asian black bear he shot in India probably weighed no less than 363 kg (800 lb) based on how many people it took to lift its body.[25] The largest Asian black bear on record allegedly weighed 200 kg (440 lb).[20] Zoo-kept specimens can weigh up to 225 kg (496 lb).[26] Although their senses are more acute than those of brown bears,[27] their eyesight is poor, and their hearing range is moderate, the upper limit being 30 kHz.[28]
