Happy Polar Bear Day!

Today is only a so~so day to be a polar bear. Global warming (which this winter doesn't seem indicative of) and climate change are the two things that have caused the polar bear to be considered a vulnerable species according to international conservation organizations. Good reasons to be a polar bear, however, abound. Polar bears have excellent noses and can smell a seal (a meal) more than a mile away. Polar bears are the largest land animal carnivore too. Pregnant polar bears often give birth to twins (I’m a twin!) and pregnant mamma bears don’t eat during their pregnancy, they just live off their fat (I wish that would have worked for me!). Polar bears actually have black skin and colorless hair. That last fact just seemed like an interesting one to me. So even though it may only be a so~so day to be a polar bear, I wish you a Happy Polar Bear Day anyway! And many more!
