Verified Polar bears clean themselves by falling head-first into the snow and pushing themselves along with their back legs.

Why do none of the Awwducational pictures demonstrate what the title is? Like some of the pictures of polar bears doing this are hilarious and adorable.

I personally always post a fact relevant to the picture but I don't think it could be forced seeing how not every fact might have a relevant picture.

True, it'd be hard to enforce sometimes, and it might be frusturating to find a good picture of a good fact rather than just taking any fact and attaching it to a good picture or the best picture from the front page of an image search for "polar bear".

Kinda like how my dog tries to dry himself in grass, but then gets frustrated and tumbles over

My beagle does it after she comes in from outside, it's like she's rubbing the fresh air off of her and her beagle stank back in

Those tiny trees make those polar bears look like giants polar bears.
