Sorry to burst your bubble - but here's an update.

The polar bear had to be 'immobilized' last week after it killed and ate a dog from the same pack.

Brian Ladoon, who runs the 5 Dog Sanctuary in Churchill, Manitoba, told CBC News that he spotted nine bears near the area where he keeps his dogs, and that one of these bears killed and ate one of his dogs. “That was the only day we didn’t feed the fu**ing bears, the only night we didn’t put anything out,” he said.

A spokesperson from Manitoba Sustainable Development told CBC that, “Conservation officers had to immobilize a bear in that area last week and move it to the holding facility because it killed one of his dogs,” adding that “A mother and cub were also removed because there were allegations the bears were being fed and the females’ behavior was becoming a concern.”
