Polar Bears

This post is for my friend Drew.

Did you know that polar bears are the largest bear species? Adult males weigh between 700-1,700 pounds! They are also really good swimmers! They use their front legs to paddle and back legs to steer. They can swim 100 miles without stopping!

Polar bear’s favorite thing to eat is seals. To catch them, they hide and when their pray is not looking, they jump out and bite them on the head. Sometimes they stalk their prey and grab them with their claws.

Polar bear babies usually stay with their moms for two years. That is when they learn how to hunt.
