The polar bear or the sea/ice bear are the world’s largest land predators. They can be found in the Arctic, the U.S. (Alaska), Canada, Russia, Denmark (Greenland), and Norway.
Polar bears are marine mammals, and spend much of their time on Arctic sea ice. Many adaptations make polar bears uniquely suited to life in icy habitats.
Their fur is thicker than any other bears’ and covers even their feet for warmth and traction on ice. A thick layer of blubber beneath their fur provides insulation. The long neck and narrow skull of the polar bear probably aid in streamlining the animal in the water and their front feet are large, flat and oar-like, making them excellent swimmers.
This video is just too cute. I had to include it.
