Polar bears are bright white, seal snacking, arctic explorers. These big bears are expert swimmers and snow strutters and look particularly shaggy and snuggly. They look adorable from a distance but are actually predators and not as cuddly as they appear. You will not encounter a Polar Bear at Olana.
