Polar bears live
along shores in the icy cold Arctic. They primarily
eat seals. They also eat walruses, sealions and
narwhals. The polar bear has no enemies except men.
The walrus may gore it in self-defense. Polar bears
look like a white bear with a big coat of white fur
and a black nose.Wild polar bears may live up to 33
years and those that are in captivity may live a
bit longer. Polar bears are champion swimmers. They
have been known to swim more then 60 miles without
a rest. They can swim 6 miles per hour. Polar bears
wait at a seals breathing hole. When a seal comes
to its breathing hole, the polar bear grabs its
throat and sinks its teeth into the seal's head.
The polar bear brings the seal to his home and eats
it with its family.
