Hunting is a national pastime, and hunting exotic animals like polar bears is a sport that is gaining in popularity. Whether you are hunting for trophy or for the perfect photograph of a polar bear, following our steps below will help you achieve success.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Plan your trip. The most successful time to hunt polar bear is between February and April of each year. This is when the bears are most mobile and looking for food to bulk up after a long winter.

  2. Step 2

    Research your rights and your legal obligations. There are many legal guidelines that restrict who can hunt polar bear in specific regions. Regardless of where you plan to hunt, you will probably need a license to proceed.

  3. Step 3

    Prepare for your hunting excursion. Polar bears live in weather conditions that are not hospitable to humans. To hunt polar bear you will need to be in good physical shape and able to endure many hours outside in unpredictable and extreme weather conditions.

  4. Step 4

    Suit up properly. Outfit yourself with the proper clothing to keep you safe in the outdoors in Alaska, Canada and other extreme locations in winter weather. Be sure your hunting gear is rated for such conditions.

  5. Step 5

    Consider hiring either a guide or a company that runs hunting excursions. They have the expertise to lead you safely through the terrain as well as the weather conditions. They are also a valuable resource for what legalities you need to be aware of as you hunt polar bears.
