Northern Canada is home to nearly two-thirds of the world's polar bear population. This Arctic titan lives a largely solitary life, but it isn't territorial—it is often seen playing with other polar bears or even cuddling together for a nap. Much like us, the world's largest land carnivore uses sound and body language to communicate, whether it's a playful raised stance, an aggressive lowering of the head, or the endless sniffing of a very curious bear.
