The village is not called Kat. The village is called Kaktovik. Articles about this bear have misspelled it "Katovik," hence the shortened but incorrect name.

Kaktovik is an Iñupiaq village of around 300 inside the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge. I've been there. Lots of polar bears. Learn about it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaktovik,_Alaska
