Poem
Abridged Alaska along the freezing Arctic edge lives the ivory Polar Bear, a vigorous carnivore. They enjoy eating the tough walrus, beluga whales and seals. They can sniff out a seal’s den up to a mile away. They only hunt and eat prey every four to five days at a time. Polar Bears are marine mammals spending time on the ice, with thicker fur than any other bear. The have layers of black blubber keeping them warm, because those frigid temperatures can be rough! When the snowy days begin to swarm, there’s nothing colder than that Artic atmosphere. Their flat feet are like oars for swimming and can swim up to two hundred miles from land. They have been known to swim up to six miles per hour at any given time. When they’re born they only weigh about one pound and approximately twelve inches in length. One of the tiniest mammals on earth, so intriguing yet hard to comprehend. Adult Polar Bears can grow almost ten feet from nose to tail and weigh up to one thousand seven hundred pounds. Females can produce up to five litters in a lifetime; the lowest of any mammal alive. Mating season is late March through May, but sadly, not all the cubs born can survive the climate. These lazy bears rest up to twenty hours a day for strength, yet do not hibernate like other bear species. Polar bears are kindhearted yet persevere to survive. They cool off by rolling around in the snow or taking a dip in frigid waters. These adoring creatures have no natural enemies, and have a soft and delightful temperament. Except females taking care of their cubs, Polar Bears are mostly solitary mammals, enjoying daily life by themselves. Their lifespan can reach up to twenty-five years, but they are still on the endangered species list. How can we save the Polar Bears? Polar Bears would benefit from reductions of greenhouse gas emissions. Helping to reduce climate change would help immensely. There are only about twenty-five thousand Polar Bears left in the world today. May we all take care of the environment to ensure the quality and quantity of these beautiful animals.
