Polar bears have had relatively fewer interactions with humans throughout history, primarily due to their remote Arctic habitats. Unlike brown and black bears, which have often shared ecosystems with human populations, polar bears have maintained a degree of separation from people.

They might see the person as something to eat because they don’t understand that humans aren’t food. This can make meetings with polar bears very dangerous because they might see humans as prey.
