I hope not. Polar bears (ursus maritimus) are evolved in the Arctic environment. The Antarctic is a much different place. Every time an alien species has been introduced into an area where it doesn't belong the results have been a disaster.

No, absolutely not. I know wildlife biologists that work with polar bears in the north and I can tell you that there is no plans to introduce Polar Bears to Antarctica.
As wildlife biologists we work to maintain natural ecosytems. We do not introduce animals to places that they do not naturally occur because in turn they would negatively effect the ecosystem they were introduced to.

No, but Mr. Popper plans to introduce penguins to the Arctic.

No, why would they do that? They don't naturally live there and it would disrupt the species that already exist in antarctica.
