Actually, the great polar bear is not the most dangerous bear. Maybe because of the harshness of their habitat rarely brings them into contact with humans, but polar bear attacks are really quite rare.In fact, many of the human deaths attributed to polar bears occur when people try to get inside cages at zoos.
The brown bear in its various subspecies kills many people, and it can be as big or bigger than the polar bear, so any attack is likely to be fatal.
But, the most dangerous bear is the black bear, which accounts for more fatalities than polar and brown bears put together. They are more common than the other two species, and often come near human habitations.

They are one of the only animals that actually go out of their way to hunt down humans.

While any bear will attack humans if they feel threatened, the polar bear is the only bear that will actively stalk and kill humans as a prey item.
