Did you know?
Polar bears are apex Arctic predators that spend much of their time hunting seals across sea ice, but they also rest deeply—sometimes for extended periods when food is scarce. Their thick fur, which appears white but is actually composed of transparent hollow hairs, provides extraordinary insulation in one of Earth's harshest environments. Despite their formidable strength, these solitary animals are vulnerable to climate change and the loss of sea ice that is essential to their survival.
