Polar Bears International

Arctic Sea Ice Day is coming soon, July 15th, and once again, we're drawing attention to this remarkable frozen ocean ecosystem.

Last week, the U.S. Department of the Interior suspended oil and gas leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge—a critical denning habitat for polar bears.

The frozen ocean in the Arctic is a key part of an interconnected system that helps keep our planet cool and at a stable temperature.

Dazzling displays of northern lights can be seen for about nine months of the year in Churchill, the town known for its polar bears.

The polar bear has been chosen as one of the top five animals for wildlife photography—with elephants, gorillas, tigers, and lions rounding out the list.

The most trusted nonprofit rating organization, Charity Navigator, has awarded Polar Bears International four stars, its highest possible ranking.
