Peek-a-Boo II
WILD & FREE
Polar bear cub hiding behind mum!
The sea ice is shrinking at an alarming rate, which has a huge impact for the bears as this is their main hunting ground. More and more bears are being found to have drowned while trying to find the ice, even though they can swim up to sixty miles or so!
I hope the ice does not completely vanish and that they always have somewhere to hunt!

Hi Steve, incredible photo. It appears the Mother’s face is injured probably fighting over scavenging rights. I pray this tragedy we are witnessing right now in Nature will be dealt with by the new administration in the US and by Canada’s apathetic government. We all need to contribute to this travesty by living green and reducing the mark we leave upon the earth as we do so. Your photography is a gift that helps us all understand more about how fragile these precious Polar bears truly are. Thank you for the work you do to educate us about these beautiful animals. Namaste, Skye
