people think polar bears and black bears are the same but that is not true. Polar bears and black bears have many differences and some similarities. A polar bears weight is about 330 to 1500 pounds and a black bear can weigh 90 to 600 pounds. Their height is also different, a polar bear can be from 7 to 8.4 feet and a black bear can be 5 to 6 feet. Polar bears are found in circumpolar north in areas where they hunt their prey and black bears live in North America in the forest. Polar bears are…

Ever since I was four years old, I have read books watched movies, and have heard out the breathtaking experiences in Alaska. Though I haven't been there, I know everything there is to know about this astonishing state. Polar bears and penguins, are some of the many animals I would dies to study and see up close. Their behavior and adaptations are unlike anything ever seen in this common state we know as home. The climate is like no other, except maybe Antarctica, the snow and ice surrounding…

bear is a predator which hunts for food and has a habitat’s near water and tree’s. So they can hunt other species like fishes, deer, and etc. Most animals discovered right now are extremely endangered to extinction. Polar bears are in a cold and snowy habitat above North America. The polar bear is a predator so it has competition with sea lions and other animals to eat fish. Grizzly bears too they get competition with mountain lions and other predators and this makes the ecosystem stable. So…

Sea Levels Rising Hurting Our Animals Polar bears are on the threatened species list because of global warming and sea levels rising. Millions of species aquatic and land animals are dying. Most under the sea ecosystems are severely affected by global warming which causes sea levels rising. For example, mangrove ecosystems require constant sea levels to survive. Sea levels are rising and affecting polar bears, sea turtles, and coral reefs. Polar bears are in jeopardy, becoming extinct…

Have you ever seen a polar bear? Not many people have. The population now is around 20 to 25 thousand. In the 70’s the population hit the all-time low, the ice they live on is melting due to global warming. The population will continue to drop so long as we don’t do anything about it, and soon, no one will get to see the snow white bear. In 2012, about 1.32 million square miles, which is right around 24%, of the Arctic Ocean was froze over. That is low considering that it dropped about 3% since…

Most of the bears live in the poles including the polar bears, the main species of my paper. Most of north lands are covered by ice and snow which restraints behavior of animals at some extent. Also, the white color of the polar bears can be helpful to hide from predator. The polar bears (Ursus maritimus) eat mainly ringed and bearded seals located on the border of the Canadian arctic. Those seals are killed by polar bears during breathing holes depending on the availability of seals in the…

This is especially true for polar bear populations in the Arctic, as the presence of sea ice is imperative to their survival. Increased alterations in seasonal sea ice retreat and return influence movement patterns, predation, and mating (Derocher & Sahanatien, 2012). Earlier sea ice melt means polar bears must retreat…

Common and Scientific Name Polar bears are commonly known as polar bears here in English but in French they are known as Ours blanc or Ours polaire and in Spanish polar bears are known as Oso polar. Polar bears can also be called sea bear, ice bear or even white bear. Habitat Description and Niche Characteristics Diet: Polar bears are carnivores and their primary prey are seals. Some seals that polar bears eat are ringed seals, bearded seals and other pinnipeds. Polar bears can be…

Nikki Anderson GRIZZLY BEAR Ursus arctos horribilis Habitat- Grizzly bears are found in many different habitats, from dense forests to subalpine meadows, open plains and arctic tundra. In North America, grizzly bears are found in western Canada, Alaska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and a potentially a small population in Washington. Historically, they could be found from Alaska to Mexico and from California to Ohio. The grizzly bear was once…

The anatomy and physiology behind Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus and Odobenus rosmarus divergens adaptations Korina M. Ramirez November 5, 2015 The only extant lineage of pinnipeds under the genus Odobenus are the walruses. This genus includes two widely accepted species Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus, the Atlantic walrus, and Odobenus rosmarus divergens, the Pacific walrus. The environment these animals live in are harsh and require quite the adaptations in order to adjust due to many issues…
