Polar fleece

The Polar Bear exhibit at the zoo was the smallest exhibit that I viewed for the day for such a massive animal. By estimation, the exhibit is about 70 feet wide, and 100 feet long. Half of the exhibit is terrain which was a smooth flattened rock surface with several big rocks for the bear to climb up on. The other half of the exhibit was a pool of water, the zoo designed the pool with the edges of the pool to be white, to perhaps give a more arctic feel for the viewers. Also, there were many…

thick under and overcoats that they shed once a year. Seals are protected from the cold by a thick layer of blubber combined with a tick fur coat. Another animal resistant to cold weather is the polar bear; this animal it has its protection from his thick fur and because of its large and heavy body. The polar bears are very good swimmers in cold water. Also, when they swim long distances they cover most of the distance floating on ice. It certainly helps to be big and…

Imagine a polar bear, sitting on the edge of the ice. He’s at the northernmost point of the earth, with family behind him. They are in sight, as the father bear makes his way across the slippery frozen wasteland. Suddenly, the ice fractures. The arctic animal floats away on an iceberg into nothingness, to never see his family ever again. Do you want this to happen to a hopeless, innocent animal? Well, it’s already happening which is why global warming is a serious issue and needs to be dealt…

Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) live throughout the ice-covered waters of the circumpolar Arctic, particularly in near shore annual ice over the continental shelf where biological productivity is highest. However, to a large degree under scenarios predicted by climate change models, these preferred sea ice habitats will be substantially altered. Spatial and temporal sea ice changes will lead to shifts in trophic interactions involving polar bears through reduced availability and abundance of their…

Topic: Not Too Late for Polar Bears Specific purpose: To inform the class about the Arctic is warming too. How will Polar Bears survive by 2050? Central idea: Without Polar Bears, other animals couldn’t survive. Polar Bears kill other animals so that smaller animals can eat to survive. Smaller animals do this by eating the leftover scraps from polar bears. Introduction: On August 1881 a naturalist by the name of John Muir sailing off the coast of Alaska discovered a large mammal. He said they…

Black bears are the most abundant and adaptable bear in its family and therefore are widely distributed (Youth 1999). They are the smallest on the North American continent though its species Ursus americanus has several subspecies in B.C. (Blood, Black Bears in British Columbia 2001). Most bears are black, hence the name black bear, however, they can have a variety of different shades of brown coat and sometimes even white (Blood, Black Bears in British Columbia 2001). These bears become…

Wilson, K. (2002). Bear snores on. Simon and Schuster. “One by one, a whole host of different animals and birds find their way out of the cold and into Bear's cave to warm up. But even after the tea has been brewed and the corn has been popped, Bear just snores on! See what happens when he finally wakes up and finds his cave full of uninvited guests -- all of them having a party without him!” (goodreads.com) After reading the book to the kids have them make a cave for the bear and his friends.…

The world will melt its way into an apocalyptic world, oceans will flood places, people will die of the heat, starvation will take place. How will the human race prevent this from happening? In order to stop global warming scientists must find ideas, and look at what is causing this? Global Warming occurs when a vast quantity of C02 along with other pollutants gets into the atmosphere and absorbs light as well as solar radiation, which has bounced off the surface of the Earth for centuries in…

For my final paper, I choose to read the novel “The Left Hand of Darkness” written by Ursula K. Le Guin. This story touches on many key topics including the importance of communication, trust, acceptance, gender, and love in a society. It always deals a lot with politics and what it means to be a traitor. All of these topics are combined to show the intent of the story, which is the importance of unity. The main character, Ai, goes to a foreign plant and tried to get the people of the planet to…
