#InternationalPolarBearDay, we’re celebrating one of the Arctic’s most iconic animals! 🐻❄️❄️
Polar bears are perfectly suited for life on ice. They sport large, padded claws and webbed toes, which give them the ability to walk across the ice and swim as needed. They are specially evolved for the cold, with black skin underneath their dense, translucent fur coat that absorbs sunlight and keeps the bears warm!
But being so well-adapted for the cold means they face a major threat: climate change. Warming temperatures cause more ice to melt earlier in the year, making hunting increasingly difficult, which causes bears to starve.
The climate crisis is something we know how to combat, and our oceans can be a key player in this battle. But immediate action is needed to tackle climate change to protect our future, and our planet's future. Join us in calling for urgent action today with the
