I'd pit them or a Kodiak against any other predator, not like an elephant or rhino or other opportunistic carnivore, like an actual predator. In terms of toughness and sheer power, they might have everyone else beat.

Salt-water croc is about all I can think of to challenge the polar bear. Interesting that in this case we have a croc vs another semi-aquatic so if the battle occurs in or near water, even that won’t be entirely in the croc’s advantage.

However, a full-grown saltie will outweigh the polar bear by quite a bit. They are so much more massive than most people realize.

Must be. I can't realistically picture a croc that big.

Good luck doing the spin of death on a fuckin bear, though.
