The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) is a large bear that lives in the Arctic. It is also called white bear or northern bear. They are slowly becoming extinct due to global warming, because there is less ice. So when the Polar Bears swim, they are unable to rest, and drown.
Polar bear fur consists of a layer of dense underfur and an outer layer of guard hairs, which appear white to tan but are actually translucent. The fur keeps them warm.
