Is that Mercedes the Polar Bear? She went mad in captivity, and now they gave her a bigger place so she'll get better hopefully!

He's doing it because he's going mad. Result of being poorly kept in captivity without any enrichment or socialisation.

There are other bears. They were just sleeping in their cave. Plus the bears have a huge ball to play with and lots of water to swim in.

That makes it a bit better, but it's still not natural behaviuor that it's displaying.
