One day a very young polar bear was sitting on an ice drift,
watching his father trying to catch fish, when he asked,
“Dad, am I a full-blooded polar bear?”
His father replied, “Sure son, you’re full blooded.”
The young bear asked, “Are you positive that I’m 100% polar
bear, Dad?”
“Yes, son, I’m sure. Your mother’s a polar bear, I’m a
polar bear…”
“But Dad, are you sure there’s not a little brown bear in me?”
“Yes son, I’m sure.”
“Are you really sure, Dad, that there’s not just a little black
bear in me?”
“Yes, son, you’re all polar bear.”
“Maybe just a little grizzly bear in me, Dad?”
“No way, son, no way,” replied the papa bear. “Why are you
asking these questions?”
The little polar bear replied, “Because, Dad, I’m freezing my
hips off out here!”
