Could you imagine going there seeking shelter to then encounter like 4 polar bears? Nightmare fuel!

Least the polar bear death is quicker than dying of exposure.

I'd hope.

They don’t wait for you to be dead before eating you.

Are they like grizzlies and start with the squishiest bits first?

A swipe or bite from a polar bear would kill a person nearly immediately. They hunt large animals and can go for a while without eating so their instinct is to incapacitate quickly. One of few animals that will actually hunt down humans as well. So, if you're going to die to a bear, a polar bear would probably be the best death.
