Just because of who they are and where they live, polar bears generate curiosity and excitement among people of all ages-and especially kids. They're perfect to use as a focal point for teaching a variety of topics, including geography, mathematics, biology, and physics.

The polar bear is classified as a vulnerable species, with 5 of the 19 polar bear subpopulations in decline.[6][7] For decades, unrestricted hunting raised international concern for the future of the species; populations have rebounded after controls and quotas began to take effect. For thousands of years, the polar bear has been a key figure in the material, spiritual, and cultural life of Arctic indigenous peoples, and the hunting of polar bears remains important in their cultures.
