They've actually mated in the wild. Polar Bears are larger, and take down bigger prey. However, Brown Bears are more aggressive due to greater competition, they have more experience with fighting. Grizzlies are known to scare Polar Bears away from kills.

Depends on the arena, a Orca ,crocodile or a shark in water would kill a polar bear. Brown bears also win most encounters with polar bears because polar bears are more adapted to water and brown bears have longer and sharper claws they are also much quicker and have better stamina.

No, it does not. Kodiak Bear is arguably the top land predator on the planet.
Note, African lion vs regular brown bear has been done in the real world, during the Gold Rush. Bear wins every time, no contest.

>They imported African lions to fight bears because none of the other animals were lasting very long. I would love to see someone try to explain that situation at customs today. The Gold Rushers thought that if there was one creature that could stand up to a bear, it must be the King of the Beasts. Unfortunately, after several attempts, they realized that lions' skulls are actually quite thin and before they could get anywhere near the bear, it would bop it on the head like a Whack-A-Mole and kill it. So if you are ever trapped with a lion, its weak spot is the top of its head. If you are ever trapped with a bear, just give up. It has no weaknesses.

>And of course there are plenty of stories about everything going wrong and the bears escaping and people getting killed, but god love those Gold Rushers, they just kept trying.

It's not an MMA fighter you moron, even if it manages to throw the bear it would just get up and fuck the gorilla. The bear has claws and is larger with a thicker hide, plus being a carnivore. Bears have similar intelligence to the great apes anyway.
