What is shaved polar bear?

Shaved polar bears are polar bears that have had their fur shaved off, either voluntarily or through force. This can be done for various reasons including medical procedures, grooming, and entertainment purposes.

Shaving a polar bear's fur can have negative consequences as their fur is a crucial part of their adaptation to their environment. Polar bear fur is designed to keep them warm in the frigid arctic temperatures and also acts as camouflage when hunting prey.

Shaving a polar bear can also cause stress and discomfort to the animal and can also leave them vulnerable to sunburn, insect bites, hypothermia, and frostbite.

In general, it is not recommended to shave a polar bear unless it is medically necessary by a vet and should only be done under proper supervision and care.
