Summer Splash with Nanook - The Coolest Polar Bear in Town!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible shot captured by the talented Steve Kazlowski, we witness the majestic Ursus maritimus, commonly known as a polar bear, enjoying a refreshing swim off the coast of Svalbard Archipelago. With its snowy white fur glistening under the summer sun, this adult polar bear proves that even in warmer temperatures, it's still the king of icy waters. As an indicator species for climate change and global warming, this furry marine mammal reminds us of our responsibility to protect their vulnerable habitat. But let's not get too serious! Just look at that mischievous grin on Nanook's face – he seems to be having a splashing good time! With his powerful strokes propelling him through crystal-clear waters, Nanook effortlessly showcases his skills as both predator and swimmer. It's no wonder why these magnificent creatures are considered keystone species in Arctic ecosystems. So dive into this print from Ardea Picture Library and immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Norway's Spitsbergen region. Hang it on your wall and let it transport you to a world where wilderness reigns supreme and wildlife thrives against all odds. Remember: when life gets tough, just keep swimming like Nanook!
