Why did polar bears eat carrots?
Polar bears don't typically eat carrots in the wild. If a polar bear is in captivity and eating carrots, it could be due to the availability of food provided by caretakers or as a form of enrichment. In their natural habitat, polar bears mainly eat seals and other marine mammals.
How is a rising sea level affecting the polar bear?
Polar bears aren't much troubled by the rising sea levels, as they aren't particularly interested in what goes on at the coastline anyhow. The big problem for the polar bears is the temperature. The warmer it gets, the longer it takes for the ice to form. and polar bears use the ice sheet to hunt for seals from.
Do polar bears use photosynthesis?

The difference between polar bears and Eskimos?
For a start, the koalas is not a bear, but the polar bear is. The word "bear" is not even part of the koala's name. Differences include:Koalas are marsupials, giving birth to undeveloped young which complete their development in the female koala's pouch. Polar bears give birth to live young which are fully developed.Baby koalas are called joeys, while baby polar bears are called cubs.Koalas are endemic to Australia alone. Polar bears are found in Arctic regions.Koalas are herbivorous, feeding only on eucalyptus leaves, flowers and bark. Polar bears are carnivorous, i.e. meat-eaters, feeding on live prey.Baby koalas drink mother's milk during their first 6-7 months of life. After 30 weeks, the mother produces a substance called pap. This substance is actually a specialised form of the mother's droppings which, having passed through her digestive system, give the joey the enzymes it needs to be able to start digesting the tough gum leaves, making an easier transition for the baby koala to start eating eucalyptus leaves. Polar bears make a simpler transition from mothers' milk to meat, and no such preparation is required.Koalas are essentially grey in colour, while polar bears are white.Koalas are arboreal, or tree-dwelling, while polar bears live on the ground.Koalas are much smaller than polar bears.Two of the koala's digits on their forelimbs act as opposable thumbs, enabling koalas to reach out and grasp the leaves they want. Polar bears do not have any such feature or capability with their paws.
Do bears live in Alaska?
Brown (a sub-species of Grizzly). Answer There are 4 types of bears in Alaska The Black Bear, The Brown Bear (which are located on the coast as opposed to the Grizzly which is more inland and is a sub species of the Brown Bear) The Polar Bear, and the Kodiak Brown Bear which is only located on Kodiak Island so it is its own species. Black bears also come in 6 colors (black, cinnamon (brown), blonde, white, glacier blue and purple (so black it has a purple hue). Brown bears and grizzlies come in 3 colors (brown, blonde, spirit bear which is very very blonde) They also come in a silver back phase. Polar bears are generally white. Polar and brown bears interbreed on occasion, and the hybrid has varying characteristics of both species.
Why are polar bears struggling to survive in the desert?
A desert is not good for a polar bear because it can't help it live. For example polar bears eat fish and other animals so if they lived in the desert it would be most likely that they wouldn't be able to find food and soon enough they would be extinct. Hope I helped :)ANS2:That question presumes that polar bears don't do just fine in a desert...The frozen wastelands of the north are a form of desert because they have little liquid precipitation and plant life is scarce. Polar bears aren't found in any large numbers in other habitats.
Is a polar bear a tertiary consumer?
Polar bears are carnivorous, hence, they eat things that eat other things. Primary consumers are organisms that feed off of the nutrients supplied, i.e. plants, algae, etc. One creature eats a primary consumer, becomes a secondary consumer, and is eaten by polar bears, making them tertiary consumers.
What's the homeostasis of polar bears?
Homeostasis is the ability of animals to maintain a consistent body temperature. Polar bears live in subfreezing temperatures, yet maintain warm bodies. This is because polar bears are endothermic, which means they have a form of insulation. Polar bears have fur and fat which protect their skin and internal organs.Ê
How is global warming affecting the polar bear population?
Global warming is melting ice caps and pushing others far apart, making it hard on polar bears to form any sort of residency and threatening their overall habitat. Polar bears are having trouble maintaining their weight because of lower food supplies and the need to swim further to get to glaciers.
