Find out how red squirrels build up a hidden stash of food. Learn how huge flocks of starlings find safety in numbers. And follow monarch butterflies as they migrate south in search of an endless summer.

What an amazing animal!!!
Bet you wouldn’t want be in it’s jaws 🐻
I love how they edit the scenes to make them seem related.
I hate when they do that
That's annoying asf
Love polar bears! They are so cute!
Except when challenged or hungry - not
One of my favorite land animals! 😍
Polar bears, as I’ve just realized, can have a very special beauty to them. 🤍
@@mikebasil4832 I agree!
Another master of the snow that is living next to Polar Beats is the snowy owls. Our crew got their amazing hunting skills on camera, showing how they could be the key to the Arctic's future.
Great animal
Polar Bears
Remember friends. This white, soft, fluffy teddy 🧸 bear might look cute & sweet, but actually it's a dangerous beast. Don't get deceived by his Innocent, cute looks. 😆😄
If you actually see a polar bear you're living too far up north where no people should be in the first place. It's just too cold. I bet mobile phones don't even function properly up there so nobody can even see your tiktok post when you encounter a polar bear and call for help!
@@huldu Yes you are right. They live far away from human inhabitation, so the chances are very remote of any human getting attacked. But still, they are very dangerous.😊
I just 🤍 POLAR❄ BEARS🐻.

sneaky ad for snowshoes right there
❤🤍💙 all your videos mate👍
Loved the paw🐾🐾prints at the end (Mr Polar Bear almost looked like he knew he was being filmed)
wonderful film
Thanks BBC earth 👍
This video is being filmed from a long distance away with a digital telephoto lense, with a protected camera and from a direction that means the polar bear, cannot smell the camera operator. In populated areas like Churchill in Canada, polar bears raid rubbish dumps and there is also an incident, where one raided the freezer of a grocery store and ate the fish and margarine.
I love polar bears❤🎉 😊
I'm glad I am not called the fattest mammal on earth
Though weighing from 1,000 to 1,400 pounds [450 to 640 kg], they are almost catlike in their agility. One biologist said: “They are like big cats. It is absolutely unbelievable how fast they are-oh, do they come fast.” The male bear is no ‘family man.’ After mating, he leaves the female on her own with all the responsibility of rearing the cubs. The fertilized egg inside the mother divides a number of times, then it remains dormant for the next four or five months. When implantation occurs and growth begins, the female digs a snow den in the deepest drift she can find or an earthen one along the bank of a lakeshore. There she remains without food, neither urinating nor defecating until the end of March. The den is well engineered. From the entrance a tunnel slopes upward for six or seven feet [2 m] to the sizable living quarters. Here her body heat is trapped, so that the den is often 40 degrees Fahrenheit [20° C.] warmer than the temperature outside. A small opening in the roof allows stale air to escape. A fresh floor covering is made, as needed, by trampling down snow scraped from the roof. You would expect such a huge bear to give birth to sizable replicas of herself. But the newborn cubs weigh only about a pound! [.5 kg] They normally arrive sometime in December or early January. Born blind and deaf, the cubs are covered with fuzzy wool except for the pads of their paws and their nose. With sickle-shaped claws, they creep along the mother’s fur to suckle on her rich, creamy, cod-liver-oil-flavored milk. Females usually bear twin cubs every three years in most regions of the North. However, those in the Hudson Bay area sometimes have triplets, and once in a while quadruplets, every second year. The cubs grow rapidly. At about 26 days, they hear their first sounds. Seven days later their eyes open. Natal fuzz turns into real fur, which has much greater density. Toward the end of March, the family emerges from the den into the sunshine of an Arctic spring. With plenty of snow about, the cubs romp and tumble. Finding a steep hillside, they slide down it on their fat little tummies, front paws and hind legs outstretched, into the waiting arms of mother below. The cubs at times find it difficult to follow in their mother’s tracks through deep snow. The solution? Why, a piggyback ride! A photographer once saw female bears, who had been disturbed by a helicopter, fleeing with their cubs riding on their backs “like frightened little jockeys.” Carefully, mother trains them for some two and a half years. Then she abandons them. The young bears are now on their own.
