Bear Strength

Not sure if this has been posted before but anyway, these are some interesting videos that i think could show off Polar bear's strength (or just Bear's strength in general):

1. Polar bear doing push up



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRpOLz2ZTp4
At 1:30. Notice how relatively effortless it was for the massive male Bear to push himself out of the water.

2. Polar bear dragging a massive Bearded seal:



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kmks8qt_WTs
The drag starts at 2:40. Notice the relative ease of the way the male Bear dragging the seal. I think it's also quite impressive that the smaller Bear (presumably a female) managed to kill a Seal of this size.


This site here also provides some details about the event

*This image is copyright of its original author

"We saw several instances of bears feeding on a seal carcass on the ice-sheet north of Svalbard, but in each case the seal was already dead when we arrived. Most dramatically, we watched a large male chase an adult female off her kill. She had killed a large Bearded Seal (photos top & bottom) that was larger and heavier than she was. The male bear chased her off and then chose to pick up the carcass — which appeared to weigh more than he did — and carry it some distance on the ice to be devoured at a spot that he preferred. Truly an impressive show of immense strength!"

3. Polar bear killing a Narwhal



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drfQNNbRiWU
At the end of the video, the Bear still had not been able to drag the Whale on to the rocks so we don't know if it ever succeeded dragging the Whale of water. That being said, the fact the Bear could kill something that large underwater is still quite impressive imo. The bear almost succeeded in dragging the Whale out of water on a rather high-inclined, algae-covered rock at 5:06 which for me, is impressive. The bear would most likely have succeed doing so if the surface was flatter and less bumping.
