Now that those polar bears know where the treats are, they’re going to try to break into parked tanks they find in order to access all the goodies inside them.

Hexbear origin story

Gonna be honest, no idea how he's got the guts to do that; as I've heard, polar bears are the most powerful predators on earth. I'd satisfy myself to MAYBE throw some food to a side; but I'm still not entirely comfortable with the thought of any part of my person being outside my nice metal mobile shield.

tanks have been more powerful than polar bears since at least the 1920s

Only half of him is in the tank though, and the other half is within bite and yank distance

I'm pretty sure Eastern Europeans see bears as potentially dangerous but usually harmless wildlife, like raccoons or foxes. Being in a tank certainly helps!

I can only imagine how cold these folks were in that tank.

[–] jack@hexbear.net 2 points 16 hours ago

I'm sure it gets miserably hot and humid in there

That's why northern wear is always so big, plush, and cushy!

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

They do look very cozy!

Imagine having to squeeze into a tank that barely has enough room for a regular person while also wearing like 5 layers of natural fibres and furs.
