Rolan Warrior was a member of the Inupiat community, in Alaska, and worked as a tour guide.

One day he was on his boat with tourists when he spotted a white object floating around the engine.

When he looked closer, he realized that it was a polar bear.

The tourists were scared and demanded to be taken to land, but Rolan immediately saw that the predator was not behaving aggressively or even in character.

The bear kept following his boat, and when he discovered the reason for his odd behavior, he couldn’t help but burst into tears.
