Standing up to 12 feet tall and weighing up to 1,600 pounds, these magnificent icons of the Arctic are the largest land carnivores on Earth. In fact, polar bears have no natural predators, but that doesn’t mean the polar bear is without its challenges. A warming planet, caused by climate change, is melting the polar bear’s sea ice habitat away.
Join us at the San Diego Zoo on Sunday, February 27 to celebrate International Polar Bear Day and to learn more about the mighty sea bear, with interactive experiences with wildlife care specialists, conservation chats with field scientists, and fun surprises for the whole family.
