Half a kilometre later the hunter caught up with the bear, only to find that he had not loaded his gun.
The bear realized the man's intentions and continued to run east. The hunter followed, and half a kilometre later, he again caught up with the bear, took aim, shot, and missed.
Disgusted with himself, the hunter walked back the one kilometer north to his camp to sulk about his misfortune.
What colour was the bear?
__________
White. It must be a polar bear, as the North Pole is the only place where you could travel that itinerary and find bears to hunt.
