“Polar Bear could be extinct within the next 30 years if we don’t do anything about it! Before the harsh winter conditions have fully arrived, female polar bears dig themselves a den in the snow where they hibernate through these hostile months (and where they give birth to their cubs) and only emerge in the spring. “
