      Because he took the mothers place of raising them he has to show them that he cares and can be trusted. th-cam.com/video/SR6X-j55eEA/w-d-xo.html

      That is true for polar bears too. Or you can take off your clothes and throw it towards the polar bear and it'll stop and smell it, but then you'll freeze to death since you usually encounter polar bears in very cold climates. Freezing to death may be preferable to being eaten alive though.

      That's actually a really old and overused joke. This is probably just your first time hearing it. The classic phrasing of that joke is actually getting away from sharks, that you don't have to swim faster than a shark, just the other swimmers.

They aren't being mistreated, nor are they being treated like humans, as many people do!
