The Scientific Classification of animals is a method that scientists use to group and categorise Species within the animal kingdom. There are many stages and sub-stages within the scale and this can become very confusing.
In descending orders of rank, the Scientific classification of a polar bear is:
* Domain: Eukarya * Kingdom: Animalia * Phylum: Chordata * Class: Mammalia * Order: Carnivora * Family: Ursidae * Genus: Ursus * Species: U. maritimus
Ursa maritimus is the scientific name of the polar bear. Ursa, the genus name, means "bear" and maritimus, the species name, means "of or pertaining to the sea." When combined that means "bear of the sea," probably referring to the fact that they live primarily on seal meat and spend much of the year living on sea ice. An easy way to remember this is to think of the constellation Ursa Minor or Major which is shaped ike a polar bear
