Editing Sea Bear

A '''Sea bear''' is an underwater bear, first appearing in [[The Camping Episode]]. [[SpongeBob SquarePants|SpongeBob]], [[Patrick Star|Patrick]] and [[Squidward Tentacles|Squidward]] all encountered him once. The Sea Bear is the main antagonist of [[The Camping Episode]].

===Looks===
The sea bear looks like a piranha with clawed fins (though it floats in the water on its side like a normal fish, unlike the regular fish of [[Bikini Bottom]]), and has the head and upper body of a bear.

===Defenses and Attractions===
Attractions of a sea bear (with explanations and/or reasons): <br />

*Playing a [[clarinet]] badly.
*Waving a flashlight back and forth really fast - flashlights are their natural prey, according to [[Patrick Star|Patrick]].
*Stomping on the ground - they take that as a challenge.
*Eating, distributing, or even holding cubed cheese. [[SpongeBob SquarePants|SpongeBob]] points out that sliced cheese is fine.
*Wearing a sombrero in a goofy fashion or upside down.                                                                                                                             

*Running                                                                                                                                                                          

*Limping (worse than running)                                                                                                                                                      

*Wearing clown shoes                                                                                                                                                              

*Crawling (worse than limping)
*Wearing a hoop skirt. 
*Screeching like a chimpanzee.
*Drawing an oval on the sand.
*It should also be noted that sea bears seem to just "not like" [[Squidward Tentacles|Squidward]], since it always attacks him whenever he moves. [[SpongeBob SquarePants|SpongeBob]] tells [[Squidward Tentacles|Squidward]] not to run, limp, or crawl if he doesn’t want the Sea Bear to attack, but then, after doing something off-screen, the Sea Bear attacks once again, showing that, even though he didn’t do anything that a Sea Bear normally hates, the Sea Bear just doesn’t like [[Squidward Tentacles|Squidward]] (as noted by [[SpongeBob SquarePants|SpongeBob]]).

Defense:

*To protect oneself from the mauling from the Sea Bear, an [[Sea Bear Circle|Anti-Sea Bear Circle]] must be drawn in the ground. Immediately after, the prey must stand or sit in the Circle's radius, and if successful, the sea bear won’t attack. However, a circle must be a perfect (or near-perfect) circle, and that an ''oval'' won’t help.
 
*Also if trying to escape from a sea bear don’t, under any circumstances, try to run from a sea bear, as they hate that.
*Don’t try to limp away from a sea bear (they hate limping more than running).
*Don’t try to crawl away from a sea bear.
*If the sea bear doesn't like you, it increases the risk of being attacked.
*Tickle it's tummy, Sea Bears love that. 
*There is also a [[Sea Rhinoceros]], which will always come after the sound of a sea bear attack, possibly to pick up any scraps of meat that a sea bear leaves behind (like vultures).

===Rumors===
*There are many rumors and controversies about the dreaded Sea Bear. In a tabloid called "[[Fake Science Monthly]]" it explains that Sea Bears and Fairy Tales are real--however, this is an obvious gimmick, seeing that the title of the magazine itself implies that the stories inside aren’t true.

*Later in the episode, it shows a different issue of [[Fake Science Monthly]], explaining the purpose of an [[Anti-Sea Bear Circle]], and that it is the only defense available. 

*In another tabloid called "Bikini Bottom Inquirer", there is an article about a fish marrying a Sea Bear.

*Depite the name of the tabloid is "[[Fake Science Monthly]]," the tips inside, such as drawing an [[Anti-Sea Bear Circle]], do really work.
