Svalbard polar bears are defying climate odds by getting fatter despite rapid sea ice loss.

Scientists found they are adapting by hunting reindeer and clustered seals, though experts warn this resilience may be temporary.

Reindeer in Finland's Sápmi region are herded by indigenous Sámi people, who follow migrating animals to sustainably use milk, meat, and fur for food and warmth.

Polar bear walking away from the shoreline toward a barren Arctic landscape, highlighting the species’ vulnerability as climate change reduces sea ice and disrupts its habitat. The scene emphasizes polar bear conservation, Arctic wildlife, and environmental change.

It’s hard to imagine a world without polar bears. Yet the Arctic is changing fast. Warming temperatures are shrinking the sea ice they rely on for hunting, putting their survival at risk. #ArcticWildlife #ClimateChange #MissionPolarBearRescue

The Svalbard reindeer is the world’s smallest reindeer species, found only on the remote Arctic Svalbard archipelago of Norway. These animals are compact, short-legged, and built with a stocky body to survive extreme cold.

This particular Arctic wolf has been named Drakkar 🚢 by scientists studying him in Alaska 🏔️🇺🇸.

Close up on the head of arctic wolf painting. And those deep yellow eyes ✨👀… aren’t they mesmerizing?

It's a black Arctic wolf 🐺❄️ Arctic wolves are a subspecies of the gray wolf who can be gray, brown, white or black 🐺🌍.

I call this photo "Wild #Muskox in the evening light"...I think it's because it shows wild Muskox in the evening light, but that's just a crazy guess? 🤔 Silly me! 😁 #greenland #wildlife #arcticwildlife #greenlandwildlife #nature #arcticnature #myhappyplace

A large painting of a small pod of whales swimming (or flying, if you prefer) through an aurora borealis. There are six bowhead whales (aka Greenland right whales), which are very large and have black skin; deeply curved jaws; a wide ridge on their head which ends a little behind their blowhole; a mottled chin patch in a unique pattern of white, gray, and/or black; and surprisingly small flippers for a whale of their size and bulk. To clarify what I mean by deeply curved jaws, the sides of the lower jaw come up on the sides of the head almost like a taco shell. The highest part of the mouth is higher than both the front of the mouth and the whale's eye, which sits behind it. One of the bowheads (towards the left) is oriented more towards the viewer, so the shape of the jaw is visible. One whale on the right is smaller and younger. The two whales on each edge of the canvas are not fully on it. Also present, swimming around the bowhead whales, are six beluga whales, about a third the size of the bowheads. They are white (although here tinted green because of the aurora's light) with small beaks, short wedge-shaped flippers, and very round foreheads. The aurora rises around and between the whales, starting a bit below them. The background where the whales swim is almost black, turning deep blue shortly below the level of the aurora. As it reaches the bottom, it lightens and shifts to a pale blue green, the way the seafloor looks in the images from submersibles. Some pale corals, fronds or round barrels or plant-like, grow at the very bottom on the lightest part of the painting. In the middle blue area, there are scattered small groups of teeny tiny fish, which partially blend into their background. At the transition from green to blue, there's a squid disappearing into the gloaming.

Fresh off the easel, here's my finished #whale #painting, with beluga and bowhead whales swimming (or flying) through the #glow of the #auroraborealis
