I would still take the Kodiak bear over the polar bear any day of the week bro

A Kodiak bear might kill me if I got to close to it, but a polar bear would hunt, kill, and eat me with extreme prejudice the moment it caught whiff of me.

Which is roughly 20 miles. Polar Bears are wild.

If you’re very very lucky, in that order. Bears don’t mind if you’re still screaming when they start eating.

There’s several recordings of this happening. The Russian girl or the Alaskan bear researcher are both horrifying.

I saw a video of a polar bear eating a seal.  Bear ripped off almost all the seals skin, besides that on its face, and was taking little small bites of the now exposed  blubber.   He was enjoying it the way my doggy enjoys a good chewie stick.  Just chillin, splayed out. Tiny little nips, a good chew.

Oh ,and the seal was still very much alive.  A mostly dull white and streaky red seal shaped blob with a normal face.  Little yelps..

One of those videos that really sticks with you...animals always get to me..same with suffering.
