Best Answer

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.

Which is most likely to win in a battle a polar bear or seal?

A polar bear is the ring seal's most likely predator, in the icy habitat of the Arctic circle. The chances are that a seal can avoid the jaws of a polar bear quite often. They can hold their breath under the water for up to fourty-five minutes, but the polar bears are of the most patient predators on earth. When the ring seal goes under the water, it has the choice of which breathing hole to take a breath from. But what if that is where the polar bear is waiting? The ring seal can hear the loud sounds of the polar bear's paws on the surface of the ice, so can move away from the breathing hole it is waiting at. But when the polar bear stops moving, the ring seal has to make a choice. Out of all the breathing holes, it is most likely that a seal will choose the one the polar bear isn't waiting at. Brilliant. This proves they may be tasty prey, but are good at avoiding the ferocious, deadly jaws of the deadly predator, Polar bear.
