There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Ignore the grizzly on the right, and focus on the left with the polar bear.

Notice how polar bears can have a good shoulder hump (like their brown counterparts), although a bit less in size, but still noticeable.
Those aren't shoulder humps. What you see there is a combination of the scapula position, the length and position of the neck and the fur. You can see that effect in big cats too.
