Esqimau in kayak attacked by polar bear

From Animals in Action (1901).


The Esquimau in our picture is advancing boldly with lance couched against the savage polar bear that has suddenly sprung up against his kayak. The bears defend themselves with great courage and skill even in the water, and there are instances enough on record of such hunts that have terminated fatally for the hunters.
