00:00If you're looking at them on a thermal camera, they just absorb all of the heat and it stays
00:08within their fur.
00:09The first polar bear in the wild, eh?
00:12First proper wild polar bear.
00:15This is just amazing.
00:16And I love the fact he's there, he's tucked up like this, keeping himself warm, but he's
00:19very, very aware of us.
00:22Head up, looking around, and then back, keeping warm again.
00:29Starting to get really, really greasy at the shore's edge.
00:34Once it freezes, the bears will then head out and spend the rest of the winter out on
00:38the ice, where they'll be hunting seals, and they'll stay there and they'll go into what
00:42you'd call a hyperphagic mode, where they just eat as much as they possibly can, especially
00:48around springtime when the seals are pupping.
00:51The bears will just eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, store up as much energy and as much fat as
00:56they possibly can, so that when the ice breaks up again around July, they can then survive
01:03the whole summer without eating.
