The Coca-Cola animated polar bears are back in this new television ad from the soda heavyweight.
These animated polar bears now have a storied history as advertising mascots for one of the world’s biggest soda companies as they’ve been appearing in commercials for years.
In this clip, a family of polar bears take a trek across the tundra. The clumsy child of the family stumbles into them and reveals he’s actually been following the wrong family for the past hour because “We all look the same from the back.”
The father polar bear scoffs at the young bear who spends the rest of the 7 minute clip trying to win back his affection. More a short animated film than a commercial, the Coca-Cola polar bears have become much more than a silent silhouette in print ads.
