EDITORS COMMENTS
Chillin' like a Polar Villain: This cool dude knows how to make a splash in the Arctic waters! Meet our star of the show, DDE-90034403, an adult polar bear with serious swimming skills. With its sleek profile and majestic presence, this Ursus maritimus is ruling the waves along Norway's northwest coast. Captured by renowned wildlife photographer Steve Kazlowski, this snapshot showcases the beauty and grace of one of nature's most iconic creatures. The arctic backdrop sets the perfect stage for this carnivorous cutie as it navigates through crystal-clear waters during a sunny summer day. Don't be fooled by its adorable appearance; this predator is at home in these freezing temperatures. With its white fur blending seamlessly into the icy surroundings, it's no wonder why they call it Nanook – meaning "polar bear" in Inuit language. But let's not forget that behind those playful antics lies a vulnerable species. As climate change threatens their habitat and way of life, we must cherish every glimpse we get into their world. So take a moment to appreciate this incredible shot from Ardea Picture Library - a reminder that wildlife photography can both entertain and inspire us to protect these magnificent creatures.
