Who will win the fight-  Polar bear would win the fight- No doubt Kodiak bear is more aggressive but polar bear know how to kill larger preys and its strong claws and long arms and neck would do the rest. Polar bears are more specialized to kill larger preys. I hope you like polar bear vs Kodiak bear fight.

  1. no way polar bear can kill dangerous kodiak bear. kodiak are the largest brown bear and along side with polar they are the largest bear in the world. like grizzly bears, kodiak bear are laso very aggressive and skillful and if grizzly can give the competition to polar bear easily then why not kodiak who is much larger than grizzly. i think in this fight kodiak bear will win the fight against polar bear.
