Fluidr / Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus) by David Cook Wildlife Photography

Spitsbergen, Svalbard Archipelago, Norway.

What animal do people immediately think off when you say you've been to the Arctic? The Polar Bear, of course! This was the very first Polar Bear we saw on our trip, and it actually found us. We first saw it at considerable distance on an island, so we were madly taking long-distance "pixel bear" photos from the ship when he/she decided to take a closer look at us and swam right up to the ship! It is a young bear, and we assume just inquisitive. It swam around looking at us for a while, then swam back to the island. We are none the wiser why! The first of 11 Polar Bears we saw.
