Description
This Polar Bear became very famous for about an hour when the entire ship, Akademik Ioffe, went to photograph him. First time ever I see a wild Polar Bear!
He could not smell us as we approached him upwind, he could only see us, and was not intimidated what so ever.
He went on with his business, which where sleeping, resting and chasing a few gulls. The High Arctic - Northwest Passage, Canada. Published here: http://goo.gl/Gijk3x and Here: http://goo.gl/To71Ed
