International Polar Bear Day


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

Polar bears — found in the frozen wilds of the Arctic, Alaska, Greenland, Canada, Russia and Norway — are the biggest land-based carnivores on the planet. They spend most of their lives around water and ice.

Unfortunately, these creatures have been classified as 'vulnerable' because they are particularly at risk from global warming that is causing temperatures in the Arctic to rise due to which the sea ice is melting earlier and forming later every year.  This means that the polar bears have less time to hunt for food.

The International Union for the Conservation of Nature has put the estimate of the worldwide polar bear population at 28,500.
