Relationship between digestible energy intake and mass change of 9 polar bears fed ad libitum lean meat and lard. Energy intake and mass change is presented relative to body mass scaled to metabolic rate (i.e., kg0.75). An adult male (Hudson) at the Brookfield Zoo was reported to have paced extensively during the trial while isolated from an adult female and was not included in the regression.
