A hunter arose early, ate breakfast, and headed south. Half a mile from camp he tripped and skinned his nose. He picked himself up, cursing, and continued south. Half a mile further along, he spotted a bear. Drawing a bead, he pulled the trigger, but the safety was on. The bear saw him and headed east at top speed. Half a mile later the hunter caught up, fired, but only wounded the beast, which limped on toward the east. The hunter followed and half a mile later caught and killed the bear. Pleased, the hunter walked the mile north back to his camp to find it had been ransacked by a second bear.

What color was the bear that tore up his camp?

The clues are all there.

the bear was white, a polar bear.

white? Polar bear. Must be at the north pole since he would be more than a mile from his camp otherwise. Can't give a detailed explanation but that sounds right.
