Polar Bears

The polar bear is the largest bear in the world. It lives on ice, and in the Arctic Ocean near the North Pole.

Polar bears have thick White coating of hair to keep them warm. They have sharp teeth to grab their food. Sharp claws, and bumpey paws to give them grip on ice

Usually Polar Bears live alone. But if the Mother has a cub She has to protect it for 2 and a half years, and  teaches the Cub how to hunt for food.

The Polar bear hunts seals for their main course. As the seal gasps for air through the breathing holes, the Polar Bear flips it out of the Ocean with their huge paws. And the Polar bear eats its prey with their sharp claws.

In the wild Polar Bears live for 20 years. In a Zoo one managed lived for 41 years.
