Or would a better caption be - Polar bear gets pissed about not using a lens hood on the 70-200!!

You get an idea of how big a polar bears head is.

Yes, that might be the largest I've seen, and I've seen several.

Hello? Hi my ever loving insurance company. Ummm... I have a claim... you see a polar bear ate my lens.  Is that covered by my policy??

Actually im more worried about the polar bear than the lens. Im not sure if the metal is so good for his teeth and possible glas shards arent either!

Hi all,

Sorry if this post is misplaced, was not sure where to post it. Found the below link in the digital picture where you can see the 70-200 in a polar bear's ownership. I would not want to be in the shoes of the previous owner  :

On a separate note, the lens is really solidly built as one can see...

 Cheers!

Gives you a good idea of the polar bear's size - HUGH!
