Bear It

Bear It is the eighth level in Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back. This level introduces Crash to his newest ally, Polar, a polar bear cub that he can ride. This clever new gameplay idea is very, very similar to the hog-riding in the levels Hog Wild and Whole Hog. The bear/bandicoot team is tasked with dodging totem poles, seals, killer whales, and TNT Crates in a charming snowy valley climate.

Trivia

 * Bear It is mostly likely based off the phrase "bear it", which means to deal with something one may not want to do.
