very nasty..... i just scimmed through it for 3 seconds and i closed the window....

Jeez, that's some sick stuff right there. And, it is true, Polar Bears are some of the most vicious animals on earth. They'll absolutely rip anything to shreds, as seen in the pics of this link.

Also, if you are squeamish, DO NOT LOOK. One picture shows a hole in a dude's leg. Just goes right thru, and you can see bone.

my bro in law's from alaska. has quite a few polar bear stories...

me to. I just scrolled through for a couple of tics. very nasty.

I knew polar bears could be aggresive and stuff, but I thought they were more cuddily, like the coca-cola polar bears.

Unless he lives in the north-western part of Alaska which no one inhibits, then it would have to be Brown Bear/Kodiak Bears, not Polar Bears.

BTW, Polar Bears are the most deadly of all bears. They are by no means cute and cuddly. They attack for no reason, while black bears, brown bears, and kodiak bears will only attack if they feel extremely threatened or the winters killed their food source.

he grew up in the the fairbanks area and knew how to travel...

Well, Fairbanks is east-central....no, I'm just messing with you.
