I knew they were big bears but not TWICE A HUMAN size! I didn’t even google this image for the polar bear I wanted to see how big a black bear is.

guess I’m never going to Antarctica!

edit: okay we got ANOTHER TIL. Apparently polar bears don’t live in Antarctica!

…I need to watch more nature documentaries…

    If it’s black, fight back. If it’s brown, lay down. If it’s white, say good night.

      If it’s brown, also say good night because a grizzly will still fuck your shit up no matter what you do.

      I like the rhyme but I mean, what the fuck are the chances of running into a polar bear. As in, if you live near polar bears, you definately know how terrifying they are and don’t need to have a guide like this.

      No, I’m not fun at parties.

        Your interest Un-funness saved your ass that one time you wandered into a bear party after misunderstanding an advertising flyer.

      The “say” makes it three syllables while the others are two so it doesn’t flow

      “if it’s white, good night” flows better and it’s more to the point since it’s shorter anyway
