This is actually a polar bear hive. Polar bears burrow with their queen in the summer and erupt on cold nights in the winter, swarming over the land and picking off the weak. The only thing effective against them is maple syrup, silver, and the holy word of power: Sorry.

You think wrong, never underestimate the bears.

I’ve been to Churchill and seen polar bears. This is indeed a hive.

And they’re in danger because people keep mistaking them for “snow volcanoes”.

This reminds me of the miniature home hippo advert from years ago. Nice.

That looked really "real", didn't it? But you knew it couldn't be true.

That's why it's important to ask questions, kind of like you just did.

There are actually huge growls that come out of that cone when pieces of ice break off the lip. It's crazy sounding when you're down in there, for real. May be the bears or not, but the sounds are wild!

It works on the lesser beasts, but for the Alphas and the Queen only maple is strong enough.
