In 2 days time we will be exploring the land of the polar bears with the Young Explorers. I'm very excited about our next expedition but one thing bothers me – will we see polar bears? Did you know a polar bear can swim 100km or more without a break. Today, the ice has moved 150km away from land. They drown, not only because of the greater distance, but of waves that form due to the lack of ice.
