Police have shot and killed a polar bear that came ashore in northwestern Iceland, the first sighting of a polar bear there since 2016. It might have hitched a ride from Greenland on a floating iceberg.

    I’m just saying that the romans stopped putting bears into fights in the colloseum because it got boring - the bears qust wrecked everything else the romans could get their hands on.

    Or so I’ve heard, I’m not a historian.

      A bear would get obliterated by an elephant, maybe even a hippo. And the Romans could get their hands on those.

      I believe this.

      And they didn’t even have polar bears afaik.

      Romans should’ve put Silverfang in the ring.
