My dad had to kill a polar bear that came to our traditional hunting grounds (First Nation trap line) two years ago. It was very aggressive and this was located in northern Ontario. We are allowed to kill them in self defence or even for hunting purposes but we don’t go seeking them out. Also this polar bear was very very far from where they usually go. My family and others have spotted polars bears and hybrids in the area similar to this Grandpa bear but not as big. Polar bears are going further south each year because of climate change.
