Perhaps the Grizzly just identifies as a polar bear for breeding purposes.

Like the proverbial 500 pound gorilla, they can use any room they want.

I hope the grizzly was the dad. I cannot picture a happy marriage the other way.

Bears don't do the family thing. Daddy does his deed and splits, like certain segments of the human populace.

It was also a transgender bear.

That's not the way I learned it.

“I believe Polar bears are actually larger and more aggressive than Grizzlies.”

Rule of thumb: The lighter color the more aggressive a bear.

Don’t read too much into this. The bears don’t read liberal global warming talking points.

Just like Gays....It’s all about the SEX!

Was bound to happen.

Interspecies sex is a direct result of what happens when the habitats of the polar bears and grizzlies can no longer sustain their numbers. Thus, interspecies sex is natures way of coping with the problem. Darwin wrote about that. I think. Or maybe not. But, for certain, the warmists will attribute this abomination of interspecies sex to global warming.

That’s the question I keep asking but so far have not received an answer I can grasp on to. I was always told that two distinct species may produce a hybrid offspring like a mule but there is no third generation so genes from hybrids are not passed on.

What about grizzly bears who identify as polar bears and vice versa?

Aren’t polar bears descendants of grizzlies who adapted to the polar ice cap?

No albino bears?

I believe that albinism can happen in any species including bears but other than the white fur, these bears don't have the other traits of albinism.

Bears can have unusual colors. The Kermode bear of British Columbia is a white version of the common black bear but again not an albino. The glacier bear of Northern BC, Yukon, and Alaska is a silver-gray colored common black bear. Both are quite rare and spread over thousands of square miles of territory, so they are seldom encountered.
