RESULTS

Polar bears are strong and determined. They

are at the top of their food chain and, like
ISTJs, they can enjoy being the boss. To hunt
for food, they have to learn and perfect their
skills. ISTJs also like to perfect their skills and
then use them throughout their life. Polar
bears, like ISTJs, can spend a lot of time on
their own and be perfectly happy while in
their own company.
