Polar Bear are pure carnivores. Anything that moves is food. They do not discriminate and it is not personal.
There was a video posted here a few days ago showing dogs interacting with Polar Bears. These images may be from the same event.
What you are seeing is a Bear that has clearly just eaten its fill and is in a playful mood. The moment that Bear becomes hungry again it will kill
and eat the dogs and person behind the camera.
We had an idiot up here for years who thought he could safely interact with Kodiak Browns. There were a couple of articles about his dangerous
behavior and nutty beliefs. Everyone talked about and knew the Bears would eat him. You may have seen the famous film that shows him being eaten by
one of his innocent harmless Bears.
Don't confuse a Bear with a Domestic Animal that has been bred for thousands of years to stop them from eating us. Playing simply means their belly
is full. They will get hungry again soon enough.
