#polarbear — Public Fediverse posts

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐻🐻‍❄️ On August 3, cameras caught a rare silver-furred brown bear cub yawning in the grass at #Katmai National Park in #Alaska.

Park ranger Sarah Bruce and biologist Michael Saxon explain the coloring comes from natural genetic variation, not a #polarbear hybrid. The six-month-old cub faces steep odds, since rangers estimate 33-50% of spring #cubs do not survive to their first year.

Polar bear sparring is a sport I never knew existed They’ll bite, tackle, grab, & roll, then rest. Inevitably, one of them gets restless and the punching, kicking, and swinging starts up again Amazing animals #photography #polarbear #sparring #hudsonbay #winter #canada #wildlife

Ever wonder how life ends up with you sitting on a frozen beach, just 100m away from a Polar Bear and her cub, while sea ice actively forms in the Hudson Bay? Me too. And I have no idea what I did to deserve this, but thank you anyways #canada #hudsonbay #polarbear

Sea Turtle, Penguin, and other Marine Mammals (Marine Animals by Panini), Part 2

Back with the second group of figures from the Panini marine animals set. Last time, I focused on the cetaceans, which were okay. This time, we’ll see the rest of the marine tetrapods (the best I can do to lump them all together). They are okay too! Also, a whole group of vertebrates that can leave the water I guess. This will include several marine carnivorans, plus a sea turtle and a […]

Pro Tip: You don't want to megadose fat-soluble #vitamins (A, D, E & K). Bad things will happen. This is well known, well documented FACT.

Fun Fact: Early European polar explorers died of #VitaminA overdoses after eating #polarbear #liver.

"Studies indicate vitamin A levels in polar bear liver can reach 15,000 to 30,000 IU per gram, compared to the recommended daily intake of 3,000 IU for men and 2,333 IU for women, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Even a small portion can cause acute toxicity."
