Happy International Polar Bear Day!
founded the day to coincide with the time period when polar bear moms and cubs are snug in their dens.
Denning is the most vulnerable time in a polar bear’s life. And in a warming Arctic, where polar bears face enormous challenges, the survival of every single cub is critically important.
Keeping moms and cubs safe while also addressing climate change is a critical part of our work on behalf of polar bears, and I’ve never been more proud of the work I’m fortunate enough to be a part of as a career.
