I have been reading some interesting stuff by canoeists traveling Arctic Rivers on another forum. Even experienced outdoor people traveling North in the Arctic, accustomed to Barren Grounds grizzlies lose sleep at night when they know they are withinn the range of white bears. Largest and most aggressive predators in the Western Hemisphere. That makes them irrestible to some people as a trophy.
