This is a photo of a polar bear sow with two cubs. Text on the image reads, "The Trump administration's plan to begin oil and gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge puts polar bears at risk."
Last month, the Trump administration announced it had finalized plans to begin oil & gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). Ironically, this announcement, which would impact 700+ species that call the refuge home, came just before #PolarBearWeek.
This Polar Bear Week, let's remember that their frozen world is melting faster than ever. Every small action, helps protect their home.

It’s #PolarBearWeek from November 2-8, 2025.
Sophie Haeubl is a student IBA Member and a Master’s student at the University of Alberta. This past spring she visited Western Hudson Bay to conduct polar bear field work.

It’s #PolarBearWeek! 🐻❄️ Meet Laerke, our polar bear ambassador, as we celebrate and raise awareness for her wild cousins facing a changing Arctic. Polar bears rely on sea ice to hunt, travel, and raise their young, but that ice is melting earlier each year as our climate warms.
It's #PolarBearWeek! We’re raising funds to support our coexistence efforts—helping polar bears & people live safely with each other. Thanks to generous donors, your gift today will be doubled (up to $50,000!) to help ensure polar bears can roam the sea ice for years to come. pbears.org/donate
Examples of some of the extraordinary archaeological finds from the Arctic: A) ivory owl effigy toggle from Nuvuk, Alaska (photograph by Anne M. Jensen); B) pre-contact driftwood house floor from Kuukpak in the Mackenzie Delta, Canada (photograph by Max Friesen); C) human remains from Qilakitsoq, Greenland (photograph by National Museum of Denmark); D) preserved medieval textiles from Andøy, Nordland, Norway (photograph by Mari Karlstad); E) 31000-year-old decorated ivory scoop from the Yana site, Arctic Siberia (photograph by Vladimir Pitulko).
#PolarBearWeek was founded to highlight the threat to polar bears due to climate change. These effects are also visible at the Arctic's archaeological sites as thawing permafrost exposes previously frozen archaeological layers to a variety of threats.

Laerke the polar bear is celebrating with a special icy treat made from propeller clams, sweet potato, and Gatorade for extra hydration! 💙 This cool enrichment keeps Laerke curious and engages her natural foraging instincts.
Polar bears need our help due to melting sea ice in the Arctic. Let’s come together for their conservation! Please support @polarbearsinternational photo is of a bear I met ( from a safe distance) in Alaskan Arctic

Happy Polar Bear Week. A whole week of wanting to save these apex predators.

This year's #PolarBearWeek theme is coexistence, highlighting the impacts of #ClimateChange, the power of innovation, community collaboration, and a focus on building a future where polar bears and people thrive together. @polarbearsinternational.org
The trial period of Bear-dar was a "pretty good learning curve" in Churchill, Man., under different environments, said @polarbearsinternational.org's Geoff York, and a "real, thorough testing of the equipment" in Arctic weather conditions. #PolarBearWeek
As part of #PolarBearWeek (Nov. 2-8), a new AI-based system from @polarbearsinternational.org, tested in the Far North for several years, officially launched to alert locales of animals nearby to deter human-wildlife conflicts. @vfennalvarado.bsky.social www.theweathernetwork.com/en/news/natu...

A slightly dusty white polar bear stands among dry grasses and bare willows looking into the sun.
Polar bears don't always look very white. Their hairs do not have any pigment in them and are hollow. This allows them to trap air both between and within the hairs. After many months on the tundra with no snow to roll in, they can look a little dusty.

This is definitely a little polar bear family. Mama is hanging out while cubby checks out the camera - just in time for #PolarBearWeek and a spoooooky #HappyHalloween ghost bear appearance.
Looking down the main street of Churchill Manitoba in November. At the far end, you can see the grain elevators of the port. The street is lined with a few stores and a hotel. Snow skiffs can be seen on the road.
A curious polar bear looks up at the Tundra Buggy Lodge which is perched high out of their reach.

Happy Halloween and #PolarBearWeek! Ever wondered how the Polar Bear Capital of the World trick-or-treats? It starts with a helicopter patrol, then members of Churchill's Polar Bear Alert team and other 7 other services (RCMP, Parks, Fire etc) patrol the town so kids can have fun safely. 🐻❄️🌿🦊
Looking out at a rocky point on the shore of Hudson Bay. To the left of the point, ice is forming, but the main bay is still water. A large black rock sits on the point. Two polar bears are hiding in this photo., circled in orange.
As promised, here they are in case you didn't manage to spot them 🐻❄️🐻❄️ #PolarBearWeek
