Do you know anything about Polar bears? Here are some interesting facts about these fascinating animals.
Polar bears are the largest land carnivores (食肉动物) in the world, with adult males weighing up to 1,500 pounds and standing up to 10 feet tall. They are excellent swimmers and have been known for swimming for long distances (距离) in search of food. They can swim at speeds of up to 6 miles an hour, and can also swim underwater for up to 2 minutes at a time.
Polar bears live in the Arctic (北极圈) throughout Alaska, Canada, Greenland, Norway, and Russia, and are well used to their icy habitat (栖息地). They have thick fur to keep them warm, and black skin that helps them take in the sun’s heat. Polar bears mainly eat seals. They hunt by waiting near the surface (表面) of the water or near breathing holes in the ice and quickly getting their “food” with their powerful jaws (下巴).
