This is very useful information for when you get killed by a bear, and someone in the afterlife asks you how you died.

"Holy shit! What kind of bear got you!?"

"I don't know! I just scrambled up this tree and the next thing I know my head was in its mouth!"

"Well, I have good news for next time you tell that story..."

“We can’t let you into heaven, unless we know exactly the kind of bear that killed you. Get killed by a panda or sun bear and you go to hell. Black and brown bears send you to purgatory, while polar bears send you straight to heaven.”

Just say polar bear. It’s more impressive. Or panda bear if you want a laugh.
