History

Polar bears are among the largest omnivorous bears in the world. The average male polar bear can tip the scales around 1,534 lbs and has physical features adapted for its life on the frozen tundra. For example, polar bears have larger padded feet that help them withstand trudging through the cold and give them greater power when swimming in Arctic waters.
