5 Interesting Facts About Polar Bears!

Polar bears have black skin, not white - the black skin absorbs heat from the sun, while their hollow, transparent fur scatters and reflects visible light, making them appear white or yellowish.
They are extraordinarily strong swimmers - polar bears have been tracked swimming continuously for over 680km across open Arctic water, using their massive front paws as paddles and their back legs as a rudder.
A polar bear's sense of smell is one of the most powerful of any animal - they can detect seals beneath a metre of snow from 32km away, and a nursing seal den through the ice from up to 1.6km.
Despite their white appearance, polar bears have a very low profile in ultraviolet photography - their fur absorbs UV light, which may help them blend into the UV-reflecting snow environment.
Wild polar bears almost never encounter penguins - polar bears live in the Arctic and penguins live in the Antarctic, on opposite ends of the Earth, so their meeting is purely a feature of birthday cakes.
