Line 1: − + − − The '''Polar Bear''' (''Ursus Maritimus'') is a large species of [[bear]] found in the Arctic and are noted for their white fur. They are capable of surviving extreme cold, as well as sea ice, snow and frozen land. − − They have thick blubber to keep warm and white fur for camouflage. Polar bears [[hibernate]] through much of the winter, usually in an excavated snow den. Their normal diet consists mainly of [[seal]]s, though in Canada they have been observed to take prey as small as [[lemming]]s. − − They are one of the only natural predators of humans. For this reason they are greatly feared by arctic travelers. − − The current world population is estimated at around 22-27,000.<ref>http://www.naturecanada.ca/climate_change_polar.asp</ref> − − Polar bears also starred in a series of [[Coca-cola]] advertisements that ran during the 1990s.
