Polar bear (Ursus maritimus) looking at reflection, Svalbard, Norway
The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) is a carnivorous bear whose native range lies largely within the Arctic Circle, encompassing the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and surrounding land masses. It is a large bear, approximately the same size as the omnivorous Kodiak bear (Ursus arctos middendorffi). A boar (adult male) weighs around 350-700 kg (772-1, 543 lb.), while a sow (adult female) is about half that size. Although it is the sister species of the brown bear, it has evolved to occupy a narrower ecological niche, with many body characteristics adapted for cold temperatures, for moving across snow, ice and open water, and for hunting seals, which make up most of its diet. Although most polar bears are born on land, they spend most of their time on the sea ice. Their scientific name means maritime bear and derives from this fact. Polar bears hunt their preferred food of seals from the edge of sea ice, often living off fat reserves when no sea ice is present. Because of their dependence on the sea ice, polar bears are classified as marine mammals

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of a polar bear in its natural habitat. The polar bear, also known as Ursus maritimus, is seen gazing at its own reflection in Svalbard, Norway. This carnivorous bear is perfectly adapted to survive within the Arctic Circle, where it roams across the Arctic Ocean and surrounding land masses. With an impressive size comparable to the omnivorous Kodiak bear, adult male polar bears can weigh anywhere between 350-700 kg (772-1,543 lb. ), while females are about half that size. Evolving to occupy a specific ecological niche, these bears possess unique body characteristics suited for cold temperatures and traversing through snow, ice, and open water. Their primary diet consists of seals which they hunt from the edge of sea ice. Interestingly enough, despite being born on land like their brown bear relatives, polar bears spend most of their time on sea ice. In fact, their scientific name "Ursus maritimus" means maritime bear due to this dependency on icy habitats. When no sea ice is present for hunting seals or resting upon fat reserves becomes essential for survival. This stunning print by Danita Delimont showcases not only the extraordinary beauty but also highlights the vulnerability of these marine mammals due to climate change and melting sea ice.
