What color was the bear?

I left my campsite and hiked south for 3 miles. Then I turned east and hiked for 3 miles. I then turned north and hiked for 3 miles, at which time I came upon a bear inside my tent eating my food! What color was the bear?

Yes, it can be answered!

'THIS' Was The Color of Bear!

Wait,first read the question! 

There is only one place on earth where when you hike 3 miles south then 3 miles east followed by 3 miles north & eventually end at the same starting point. And that place is north pole. 

Only Polar bears can survive on north pole; and they are white in color.

Hence, the bear found must be of white color.
