Watch these massive bears as they get ready for hunting season.

Not many get to see polar bears in the wild. Most who do take a Tundra Buggy tour, riding in giant tank-like buses. Others see the bears from the decks of cruise ships plowing through the Arctic Oceans. But very few ever actually walk among the bears.

To make a complex story simple, polar bears are threatened by habitat loss. We may hold onto polar bears as a species to the end of the century, but this is predicated on many hopeful elements.
