Polar bears are the largest bear in the world and are the Arctic’s top predator. They can run at 40 kmph. They have 42 razor-sharp teeth and 30 cm wide paws. There are four inches of fat under the polar bear’s fur to keep it warm. Ursus maritimus means ‘sea bear’ – appropriate for a bear that can swim at 6 mph in the freezing Arctic seas.
