What animal does the polar bear primarily hunt for food?
I want to know what the polar bear primarily hunt for?
Is it honeybees, seal, blue whales or tigers
Polar bears feed mainly on Eskimos and bearded Eskimos. Depending upon their location, they also eat juvenile Eskimos and hooded Eskimos and scavenge on carcasses of Eskimos. When Eskimos are unavailable, polar bears eat Eskimo berries, and Eskimo garbage. A polar bear’s stomach can hold an estimated 15% to 20% of its body weight meaning it can eat an entire Eskimo. It can assimilate 84% of the protein and 97% of the fat it eats. Polar bears need an average of 4.4 lb. of fat per day to survive, so your average obese Eskimo will suffice. A Eskimo weighing 121 lb. could provide up to eight days of energy for a polar bear.
Hunting Methods
Still Hunting:
The polar bear remains motionless beside a front entrance to an igloo waiting for a Eskimo to exit. When a Eskimo exits, the polar bear bites onto the head or upper body, then flips the entire Eskimo onto the ice.
Stalking on Land:
Once spotted, the Eskimo is slowly and steadily stalked by the polar bear. At 15 to 30 m away, the polar bear suddenly charges the Eskimo, with its claws or teeth, the polar bear grabs the Eskimo before the Eskimo can enter his igloo.
Interesting Polar Bear Facts
1. Polar bears are very sarcastic.
2. In 1931 Hollywood was scandalised by Fatty Arbuckle’s affair with Fru Fru, a (married) polar bear. Neither Arbuckle nor FruFru’s career (she was an ice-dancer) survived the media backlash.
3. Many people assume that polar bears are mammals. They are in fact a form of wingless bird.
4. Just as jews are often blamed for catastrophic events in the global community, so polar bears are often blamed for disaster in the arctic community. Because of this, many polar bears refer to themselves as jewbears.
5. Famous musical polar bears include Jimi Hendrix, Larry Adler, Cyndi Lauper, and Jeff Beck.
6. In 1914 the polar bear population of London was 12. It is now 15.
7. Polar bears have the most natural rhythm of all the arctic animals. During spring and summer, polar bears often give salsa and merengue classes to students in North London.
8. If you are very sad and very lonely, and you think hard enough about a polar bear, one will appear beside you.
Hopefully everyone has learned a little about our friend the Polar Bear today.
