Polar Bear

Not to be confused with Crash's pet, Polar.

Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure
Polar bears are enemies first seen in the Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure level Snow Crash. They do nothing more than walk back and fourth to get in Crash Bandicoot's way. They can easily be defeated with a jump, spin, slide, or belly flop.

Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex
In Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex, there is a polar bear that races Crash in Ice Station Bandicoot atop a flying carpet. Crash will be slowed down if he makes contact with him. As seen in an old picture of an early version of Ice Station Bandicoot, he would have been an enemy, seeing as no other enemies appear in the other early photos of Ice Station Bandicoot.
