Lost's island polar bear was part of Dharma Initiative experiments that played a significant role in the show's storyline. The bears were chosen due to their intelligence, memory capabilities, and strength for tasks related to manipulating electromagnetic energy. The season 3 DVD special feature and epilogue gave insight into Dharma's reasons for using polar bears in experiments on the island.
Among the first mysteries introduced in Lost pertained to the existence of a polar bear on the island. When the show began the stories of the Oceanic Flight 815 passengers in 2004, a number of questions immediately became pertinent, not the least of which being the monster living on Lost's island.

Ten years ago – on 23 May 2010 – Lost broadcast its final ever episode.
Six yeas earlier, its first season following survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 after they crash on a mysterious island somewhere in the South Pacific became one of the most-watched shows in TV history (the season two premiere was watched by a staggering 23.47m viewers). It even went on to pick up the Emmy Award for Best Drama.
What ensued became part of television history. Lost may have dropped millions of viewers over the years, but what it secured was a cult fan-base that hadn’t been seen since The X-Files, and has rarely been seen since. Its many mysteries, ensemble of intriguing characters and jaw-dropping twist endings kept its core viewers on the edge of their seats right through to the divisive ending.
To celebrate the finale’s anniversary, we’ve done the seemingly unthinkable and ranked every single episode.
