The most considering cause for this is their lifestyle, culture, food and their circumstances to which they are born to.

The white "Spirit" black bear (or Kermode) Ursus americanus kermodei, differs from the ordinary black bear by a single amino acid change in the melanocortin 1 receptor gene (MC1R). In this population, the gene has two forms (or alleles): the "white" allele b and the "black" allele B. The trait is recessive: white bears have two copies of the white allele of this gene (bb), whereas a bear is black if it has one or two copies of the black...
