As unfortunate as this is, afaik, polar bears are one of the most aggressive animals around, intent on eating pretty much anything that moves. I don't doubt that it did pose a threat.

Polar bears actually stalk humans, so they're super dangerous.

It's too bad that big oil has fucked up the earth so bad we have to kill them, just because they floated across the Atlantic and landed on a foreign shore..

There are only two species that are still predators of humans and will actively hunt us: polar bears and bangal tigers.
