Polar bears do not actively hunt humans as a primary food source, but they are opportunistic predators. In rare instances, they may attack if they feel threatened, are protecting their young, or are extremely hungry and see humans as potential prey. Human encounters with polar bears can be dangerous, but such attacks are relatively infrequent. Conservation efforts aim to minimize human-polar bear interactions to protect both species.
