Amazing animals. Hopefully around for a long time too.

The cameras they are using are damn cool.

Many of them didn't survive though!

With global warming and the warmer winters, such as 2010, its not looking too good for them, particularly the west based ones.

Ice levels at record lows currently.

I only saw half of it. Was there a happy ending for the bears that missed the ice flow?

Very impressive. Some of the filming was awesome. Yeah there was a happy ending Ian. They made it to the ice and ate some seals. Pretty sweet life i'd say.

Glad they showed what happened to the cameras though. That was hilarious.

All cubs survived ๐Ÿ™‚

at least till the end of filming..

1 mum with 2 cubs caught the ice flow on time
1 mum with 1 cub missed the flow but caught it later

Loved watching them play football with the camera

Lovely cute creatures.

They wait at blowholes for baby seals to pop their noses out for a breath, then they scoop the baby seal out, rip their guts open, and eat the baby seal while it's still alive and screaming.

Lovely cute creatures.
