A department store in the U.K. is having to apologize to customers for a Christmas display that seemed to have polar bears in an interesting position.

The only department store on the Isle of Man, Tynwald Mills, had a Christmas themed polar bear display that many thought was "lewd and pornographic" because of one bear on all fours and the other bear standing behind the other.  Social media users shared many pictures of the display and it spawned an apology from Tynwald Mills.  One person thought it was a clever way to lure customers in to shop, but a rep for the department store said, "THe polar bears have had a talking to, and our severe case of 'Night at the Museum' hopefully won't repeat itself."

Do you think the display should've stayed up in the mall?
