Lol!
I’m always on the side of wild animals. Wife may have been gorgeous or a skank. I don’t care.
There’s Polar Bear Provincial Park up by Hudson Bay.
To the wast of there is Churchill. A woman I rented from when I lived in Quebec had been an army nurse there.
She’d tell how you had to be careful about “les ours polaires”.
Good for him he deserves props.
Whoever put that story together is an idiot. First we get a video of a polar bear swimming at a zoo, and then there is a still of a polar bear leaping at something in the snow. Why?
Amen brother. :)
Nah, I know marriage is an institution.
Or at least it can drive you to one.
Like Lou Costello says, there are 3 rings for marriage.
Engagement ring, wedding ring and suffering :)
Ontario is VERY large, and Nishnawbe Aski is just the name of tribal police (they are scattered throughout Ontario). It would have been nice if the article gave us a hint as to what part of Ontario.
Chuckes always chat’s these attacks up and adds thet it’s becoming a Weekly occurance .
This Attack and defense will Definitely be One for the Books !
I can’t imagine Attacking a Polar Bear Empty handed !
They are in Florida too, but are called solar bears.
probably still won’t get any action from his wife
That’s a 2000-lb apex predator. Bravo for the husband but that was suicidal.
The couple, who live in Fort Severn First Nation...
Fort Severn is a Swampy Cree First Nation on the southern shores of Hudson Bay, the northernmost community in Ontario, and a place where polar bears are often spotted...

I'll take the 10 foot alligators pulling 40 foot snakes anyday over what you've got.
Who in their right minds goes out of their house in the dark at 5am in bear country to look for dogs, unarmed? Thank goodness the neighbor had common sense.
There are wives and then there are great wives. The latter is in very limited quantities and mostly already married to husbands who are also willing to jump on polar bears to save their better halves.
I would jump on a polar bear for my wife.
I can’t lose.
If I save her, I’m a hero.
And if he kills me, I don’t have to go back home with her from the vacation :)
The first time I heard that (3 rings) was from a priest during a wedding ceremony in New Rochelle, NY circa 2004!
