Auraestus wrote: just to add on, Polar bears were originally black/brown bears, but being in the cold and white climate meant their darker fur couldnt blend in with the snow, so after a genetic mutation occured, their fur became white to help blend in and hunt prey. And the fact is apart from that there isn't a huge amount of differences except larger surface area on their paws to not sink into the snow as much.
