FEATURE - Zwei Eisbären kämpfen spielerisch
Pictured: Two polar bears playfight.
As polar bears wait for the ice to freeze over so they can go out on it to hunt, they playfight with each other in order to practice their prey catching skills. Neither of the bears were seriously hurt as they exchanged punches but the smaller bear had some blood on its coat from when the pair’s teeth clashed.
Semi-professional wildlife photographer Russell Millner captured the photo on the Hudson Bay near the town of Arviat in Northern Canada. The 61 year old, from Bowness-on-Windermere, Cumbria, said: “It was pretty spectacular to see - I’ve photographed polar bears before in a number of different places, but this was the first time I’d seen them playfight like this SEE OUR COPY FOR MORE DETAILS

FEATURE - Auch Eisbären Babys haben Hunger
Sometimes nature isn’t cute and cuddly.
These visceral pictures show a mother polar bear and cub having a vital – and bloody - meal.
The family were pictured feeding on an unfortunate seal in Svalbard, Norway.
Hilariously, the cub had so much to eat it struggled to get up a hill – where it promptly fell asleep on its mother.
World renowned wildlife photographer Andy Rouse shot the images on 15 July.
He explains: “I was leading an expedition to explore this amazing place. The images show a mother and cub feeding on a fresh seal kill. We came upon them well after they had made the kill. The cub was eating meat, but we also witnessed it suckling from the mother. Polar Bears are dangerous apex predators and we kept our distance but at no time did the female show us any aggression. The primary threat to polar bears is the excessive hunting across the Arctic, which has seen many thousands killed in recent years.
“It was an amazing experience to see the cub learning such an important life skill. It fed until it could hardly walk. We laughed as it was obviously such a huge effort for it to get back up the hill to its mother whereupon it fell soundly asleep!
“My intention as a professional wildlife photographer is always to show images that differ from the norm, and this time with my Olympus mirrorless camera I think I did just that. These images show the real life of polar bears, as the apex predators it’s a matter of survival for them to hunt and kill seals. Unfortunately, these kinds of images are rarely shown to the public as these days we like to show only pretty and glossy wildlife, I like to do exactly the opposite, to show nature in the raw as I see it”.

Hilariously, the cub had so much to eat it struggled to get up a hill – where it promptly fell asleep on its mother.
World renowned wildlife photographer Andy Rouse shot the images on 15 July.
He explains: “I was leading an expedition to explore this amazing place. The images show a mother and cub feeding on a fresh seal kill. We came upon them well after they had made the kill. The cub was eating meat, but we also witnessed it suckling from the mother. Polar Bears are dangerous apex predators and we kept our distance but at no time did the female show us any aggression. The primary threat to polar bears is the excessive hunting across the Arctic, which has seen many thousands killed in recent years.
“It was an amazing experience to see the cub learning such an important life skill. It fed until it could hardly walk. We laughed as it was obviously such a huge effort for it to get back up the hill to its mother whereupon it fell soundly asleep!
“My intention as a professional wildlife photographer is always to show images that differ from the norm, and this time with my Olympus mirrorless camera I think I did just that. These images show the real life of polar bears, as the apex predators it’s a matter of survival for them to hunt and kill seals. Unfortunately, these kinds of images are rarely shown to the public as these days we like to show only pretty and glossy wildlife, I like to do exactly the opposite, to show nature in the raw as I see it”.

FEATURE - Es gibt ihn wirklich: The Real Polar Express
Guests at this rolling train hotel will be hoping not to be like meals on wheels... as it's surrounded by polar bears.
The Tundra Lodge Rolling Hotel in Manitoba, Canada, is a custom rolling getaway where guests can enjoy regular visits from the giant Arctic animals.
Guests can stay warm from the comfort of one of 32 rooms on-board the train - which boasts a large lounge area for viewing the bears.
But daring visitors can get up close and personal with the bears on the raised outdoor viewing gallery and are often treated to the sights of the Northern Lights.
Every guest has their own room with a private window, and there's also an outdoor viewing area with a mesh floor where you can come even closer.
Guests here pay up to £5,000 ($7,895) to spend three nights in the mobile hotel, which takes them into polar bear habitat at the start of the viewing season, according to the website for lodge operator Natural Habitat Adventures.
