How They Got Here

In 1771, Thomas Pennant named what was previously known as the white bear, ice bear, sea bear, or Greenland bear, as the Polar Bear.

In 2025, global democracy named was previously simply known as the Polar Bear as the second best bear in the whole entire world.

That shows your just have far you can come in a mere quarter of a millennium if you put your mind, paws, and soul to it.

Where They Came From

Evolutionary speaking, the second best bear in the whole entire world comes from the Polar Bear, which comes from the Ursus, which comes from the Ursinae, which comes from the Ursidae.

Geographically, they come from cold places, near the top of the world, like Russia, Alaska, Canada, Greenland, and Norway, so it is only natural they now also come from near the top of The World Famous Sweet Livin’ Productions World’s Best Bear Poll.

They closest they have been recorded to the North Pole is 25 kilometers. The closest they have recorded to being the top bear in the whole entire world is #2.

What’s Next For Them

Getting to the North Pole and to the top of The World Famous Sweet Livin’ Productions World’s Best Bear Poll.

If they are able to accomplish even just one or the other, there should be a lot of endorsements in their future.

If they are able to accomplish both, there should be a lot of puns in their future.

How They Compare To Their Predecessor

Last year’s runner-up, Mike Ditka, hailed from a windy place, Chicago, and an overcast place, Pittsburgh. Still the Polar Bear likely has a more difficult environment, which is probably why it took them a year longer to get to this prestigious place on this Prestigious Poll than it did their predecessor Ditka. That is also likely why Ditka was able to capture a Super Bowl while the Polar Bear hasn’t—-yet.
