Adopt a Polar Bear

 

 

Adopt a Polar Bear: Adopt a real Polar Bear with this Adopt a Polar Bear gift pack and help safeguard the Polar Bear species. The WWF Adopt a Polar Bear is a great cause. When you adopt a polar bear, you not only protect the bear, but safeguard the future.


Adopt a Polar Bear

Polar bears and other Arctic species are particularly at risk because their habitat is increasingly threatened by global warming.

Numerous scientific agencies have shown that polar bear numbers are on the decline, and that if action is not taken quickly, polar bears may vanish from the Earth, deprived of habitat, food, and shelter. The disappearance of these wild animals would be a great tragedy.

The polar bear you will be adopting is froma group of male and female bears aged between 5 and 12 years old that live in the Svalbard archipelago in the Arctic, which belongs to Norway.

Svalbard is made up of three larger islands and numerous smaller islands and approximately 60% of the archipelago is covered in glaciers.

Your sponsorship money from this adopt a polar bear gift pack will help the WWF to safeguard the future of wild polar bears, and tackle some of the biggest conservation challenges that we face today.
