Polar bear livers, for some reason, contain far more Vitamin A than a human being can tolerate. It can be fatal. Some seals, walruses, etc. are the same way.

A polar bear’s liver contains an extremely high concentration of vitamin A.

Polar bears eat enormous amounts of sea and walrusl which loads their livers with toxic levels of Vitamin A

Seal and Walrus get the vitamin A from sea algae common at that latitude

They contain so much vitamin C that eating can kill an adult male.
