Why not? There's plenty of sea ice, a necessity for their habitat, it doesn't get too warm in the summer, and there are very few people.
Polar bears live in the Arctic, including Canada and Svalbard (a group of islands north of Scandinavia), Denmark, Norway, USSR/Russia, and the US.
There are about 3,000 which range from Svalbard to Jan Mayan and back to Franz Joseph Land.
They walked across the sea ice (where they live), and still travel in this way. There is evidence that the ancestor of the polar bear originated in present-day Ireland.
Svalbard is a fantastic place because its a great place for scientists and its the farthest north inhabited place ever. There are also loads of polar bears.
Bears are more likely to be spotted in the summer than the winter, however, the likelihood of seeing a polar bear in Svalbard depends on where you look, several of the companies in the town (Longyearbyen) offer tours at peak points of the year to the bits of coastline that polar bears are known to inhabit.
