I watched some but for me it got a bit too emotional and spoilt it.

Re: My Polar Family and Me
Very interesting programme, but keeps making references to 'Climate Change' as though we have something to do with it. Lira seems to have a problem that the other bears encountered don't have. They find food, she doesn't.
I should imagine Polar Bears were one of Britain's most common animal 12 to 15,000 years ago, now extinct from here, but have 1000s new species instead.

Re: My Polar Family and Me
Lira found food tonight, a huge dead Whale...
Now she will survive all winter.

At this time of year?? Isn't it hibernating now?kata wrote:Lira found food tonight, a huge dead Whale...

Re: My Polar Family and Me
That was last nights ending,
Apparently one last message from the tracker found her at the Whale so dunno as I caught it late.
They're doing three seasons so maybe a last meal before hibernation Conifers....Autumn, or summer maybe one of those. Very fortunate finding a dead Whale..

Though not too difficult to find . . . they're a bit whiffy* , and Polar Bears have got very good noses . .kata wrote: Very fortunate finding a dead Whale..
