The bear was only 200 pounds, which is a very small bear.
"The bear was in poor shape, suffering from a severed tongue and broken jaw,
the conservation officer said. Its stomach was empty and the bear had little
fat on it."
The OP didn't say how large the polar bear is but going on the average size it's going to be a lot larger than 200 pounds and presumably in good health. The average adult male polar bear is 900 to 1500 pounds. When I said impossible, I meant it assuming it was a mature adult bear in good health that's not confined, I mean I just don't think it's remotely possible with no 'real' weapon especially.
Additionally, this man had no choice but to fight the bear because it came out of nowhere and attacked him. These 10 men have the luxury of knowing beforehand that there's a bear they are supposed to kill and can make a smarter plan. Trying to engage in a physical fight with the bear as your first plan is the worst move these men could make.
Polar bear or 10 men?
