Bear Hunt

2 Nov 06 in Games

Mind muddler:

A Hunter spotted a Bear Twenty Meters due South of him.
He raised his rifle and pointed it due South straight at the Bear
The Bear however was spooked and ran a hundred meters due East.
The Hunter again pointed his gun due South and fired and killed the Bear, with a single straight shot.

What colour was the Bear?


This is of course a logic puzzle and has a real answer, which I'll blog if no-one posts the answer or it's driven u mad.

    White....

    It’s a Polar bear...

    Hunter was standing on the North Pole... directly over the North Pole... No matter what way the hunter pointed their gun...it always pointed south. Therefore wherever the bear went it was always south from the hunter....and because its was at the North Pole it must have been a polar bear. Therefore…White…

    No other bears are stupid enough to want to live there....

    That's an oldie, BT. What a mean hunter.

    The funny thing about polar bears is that we always see them on TV with penguins.

    And the only place that would ever happen is in a zoo.

    And if it had swings from elevated to depressed mood states, it would be a bi-polar bear.
