Pun 1: Bared - really obvious. No more commentary necessary.
Pun 2: End to end - dealing with poles (the ENDS of the earth)
Pun 3: Bear - Again, really obvious.

There you go. Happy?

Oh, I don't know any Pole bears... I know a couple of German ones, though :)

Let's kill this NOW... before it gets any worse...

Naah... its too much fun :)
