  • Can't remember where I heard this, but .....

    If followed by a polar bear, disrobe a bit at a time while moving away.  The bear will approach your clothes instead of you.  

    While it's checking out your labels, run.  (If you can and if it's* not already frozen).

    I seem to recall something about them loving toothpaste too, but that might be something I've made up.


    *: this may apply to your feet, legs or other bits a little further up.

  • I would rather be judged by who I am than what I wear...even if it is by a polar bear.  :)

    No, but I don't think that problem will ever arise.

    Yeah, that's the way I feel too. I'm more concerned about protecting myself from mosquitoes.

  • Build camouflage with stones.
    Throw it a huge pile of fish - with the idea that if it's not hungry it won't want to eat me.

    Doff your clothing quickly and run away. The bear will stop to sniff out your rags.

    I moved to Texas in 1960.

    No problems since.

    I am not worried about protecting myself from animals.  It is people I need to guard myself against.

    I don't know how to protect myself from a 4 year old child and you're asking me that question.

  • What? That should be how does a Polar Bear protect itself from me. We're the ones who've f**ked up this animal and it's habitat. Give the bear the gun
