Polar bears are built for the brutal Arctic cold, with generous fat reserves and thick coats designed to trap heat.
It’s incredibly useful when temperatures plunge below freezing, but a little overwhelming when things start to warm up. To keep cool, they do what comes naturally, which in this case is to belly flop into the snow.
As record heatwaves scorch Europe this week, we’re thinking of everyone out there and hoping you’re finding ways to stay cool and safe!
