Props to him for resisting the urge to scoop up that little cub and hug him and squeeze him and name him...
I think my maternal instincts were triggered, or just the inability to resist that degree of cuteness. I will dream about that cub! 💕
I want to cry over the baby bear! He needs someone to take care of him! Poor baby!
Tough love.
oh my god the little bear cub broke my heart. I know nature is unforgiving but.
That polar bear spreading its weight above thin ice and dragging itself like a seal. Thats fascinating to see. Its also very interesting to follow the story of the orphan cub. I hope it is able to survive.
This was one of the absolute best nature films I’ve ever seen. Amazing work by everyone involved.
That beautiful cub following the photographer.
A touching scene.
One of the BEST documentary films seen. Thank you for sharing.
Cool
Yes
@Grilled Trout polar bear is so adorable
Man why u don’t have loaded gun?
Oh, my heart was breaking but, Arni was smart with not feeding the cub. I, myself, would have brought it in, made him dinner and sat down for a snuggle!
This is probably the best Polar Bear Documentary I have seen. Thanks much! I would say this does top David Attenboroughs. I like the cabin scenes, the close ups, living there, and the drama that plays out. Nice work, you know the bears well. Keep it up!! Thank you!
p
Love this documentary so much! The narrator is amazing. Thank you for making this available for free!
Impressive dedication of those men. Remarkable ecosystem to work, live, and try to survive in -- for humans and all other mammals.
The little cub broke my heart.
this is the best polar bear documey i have seen.
Really broke my heart that the cub was bonding with this man, but because interference could be worse than helping, he had to leave the cub to his own devices. That decision would have kept me up nights. Even knowing that feeding this little one could ultimately lead to its demise, I fear I would have broke and fed the cubby. I guess it is good then that I don’t work and study with these animals as the soft hearted have no place among them.
Technically they could work around it. tHEY HAVE THEM TAGGED SO i DONT THINK IT WOULD TAKE MUCh to place food ahead of where they will likely go to. Could feed them both and not interfere much.
Im all for letting animals live without interfering but once I see them tagged etc I think we have already passed that loose rule.
Yea they only interfere when they are destroying their habitat or hunting them.
That is probably what the idea was, when they left the reindeer remains. Just because they didn't straight out say it, it's not that complicated to read between the lines.
@@jameslawson7383 Agreed
Screaming Tima Your comment gave me food for thought. Thank you.
I wish I could give a Hug of sympathy to that cute little orphan cub 😥
STAY STRONG💪✊💪sweet little orphan cub ~ hopinggg above all that you’ve found your way, in survival. Broke my heart to see you trying to bond to humans innocently, but to your ultimate detriment; so relieved & encouraged to see you walking courageously, on your own, towards the ice & into your future. Be blessed little cub!
Lina Zhou, there is some hope. A Swiss documentary captured the story of two orphaned yearling brown bear cubs, whose mother some hunters murdered. They stuck together through their second year of life, made their den for torpor , and emerged the following spring with a greatly enhanced chance of living into adulthood. I often think about those brave little bears, hoping the remainder of their lives was long, and much happier than their second year. Now, I can not stop worrying about this little polar bear, either.

I know that if I started charging a polar bear with a stick I'd soon forget the stick and would be running to it for a big hug. Beautifull animals!
What A beautiful Documentary... thank you.
Extremely beautiful doc. Thank you so much for posting.
It was heart-breaking to view the footage of the orphaned little cub, who without his mother, is probably doomed to starve, or to be killed by an adult bear.
11:05 "I think she was just after our meat. Not us."
No no if she could have gotten you she would have absolutely gone after you. Remember, she is hunting for 3 bears.
Quite possible. I think what the documentary intends to say is that she _prefers_ reindeer over human flesh (human flesh is very poor polar bear food indeed because it contains very little fat, but they need fat above all for their metabolism) and that she is not trying to hunt the two men because they have trained her very well such that she understands it is extremely unlikely she would get them but she knows trying would be a high-risk endeavour. Stealing a bit of a carcass owned by another bear (or by a cougar or pack of wolves or whatever), even if the owner is a big and strong and dangerous bear, on the other hand is typical bear behaviour when the owner is sufficiently distracted that the theft does not imply a significant risk. So it's very plausible that's what she considered trying.
This is an awesome and beautiful documentary. Thank you. I feel bad for the little cub. I would suck at this job because im so in love with the polar bears and everything about them. I could take that cub home with me tbh XD
You know that cub would grow into a murder machine with no regards for you right? That being said, I too, wanted to pet and take the cub home 😂
Taking a future APEX PREDATOR home would be the HEIGHT OF STUPIDITY.
But every now and then a would take food down to the beach when they were not around.( also stupid).
It's so beautiful watching the animals interacting with each other
I lived in Alaska for 10 years, I have great love for the beautiful polar bears, even though I lived in Kotzebue, and Barrow...the beautiful Polar bears are the real true first nation's
Barrow, Nancy Beveridge Taylor? That is far enough north, you should have seen them in summer.
I love this video. Thank you so much for sharing it.
amazing documentary - thank you so much!
This breaks my heart. We want to help protect these species, but at the same time we can't help save the young cubs
AGREED. THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS TO EVERY RULE. I SAW THIS LONG AGO & AGAIN TODAY & WAS THEN & NOW HAUNTED BY THESE MALE DECISIONS NOT TO FEED THE CUB. YOU AREN'T GOING TO KILL THE POOR CUB BY FEEDING IT, YOU FEED IT, YOU'RE LEAVING, HELP IT TO STAY ALIVE UNTIL IT CAN GET BY. IT WILL NOT GET ACCUSTOMED TO BEING FED BY PEOPLE BECAUSE THERE ARE NO PEOPLE THERE EXCEPT THE RARE DOCUMENTARY / FILM / PHOTOGRAPHER. SO YOU FEED ONE BEAR? IS THAT A DISASTER? BUT THEY AREN'T THINKING STRAIGHT, THEY ARE 'INSIDE THE BOX' LIKE THE PHARISEES / SADDUCEES WITH THEIR RULES WHO TORMENTED JESUS. HERE THIS POOR LITTLE CHILD SAW ITS MOTHER KILLED BY A MALE & EATEN (WHAT ELSE COLD HAVE KILLED & CONSUMED HER? UNLESS THE MALE KILLED HER & LEFT HER & SHE WAS CONSUMED BY OTHERS, BUT IF HE DID NOT TARRY & EAT HER, HOW COULD THE CUB HAVE RUN AWAY? THE CUB HAD TIME TO RUN WHILE THE MALE ATE HIS MOTHER, THE MALE WAS AFTER THE CUB, THE MOM GAVE HER LIFE TRYING TO SAVE IT.) NOW THE CUB COMES TO THE ONLY PLACE IT THINKS IT MIGHT FIND SUCCOR - THESE SETTLED MEN, WHO ARE TOO DAFT, COLD HEARTED, PETRIFIED BRAINS CAN'T THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX............
@B earth MOST HUMANS ARE DIRTY ROTTEN SCUMBAGS, ESPECIALLY HEARTLESS MEN. THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT THEMSELVES. THE SAINTS SAY MORE PEOPLE TO TO HELL THAN HEAVEN - THE MAJORITY. YES THEY TAKE CARE OF YOU SAY KOALAS - DID YOU MEAN PANDAS? LOOK HOW THEY PAMPER PANDAS BECAUSE THEY'RE *BIG BUSINESS*. IT'S ALL ABOUT BUSINESS, BUSINESS IS MONEY IN THEIR POCKETS FOR WHAT? SURVIVAL & THEN LUXURIES, 'WINE, WOMEN & SONG' WHILE THE POOR ANIMALS STARVE. THEY WON'T EVEN LEAVE HUMAN GARBAGE, LEFTOVERS, FOR THE POOR ANIMALS TO EAT. THEY MAKE GARBAGE CANS IN PARKS BEAR-PROOF. SUPPOSEDLY THEY ARE HELPING THE BEARS. BUT THEY AREN'T. WHAT WILL THE BEARS EAT WITHOUT OUR GARBAGE? WE HAVE TAKEN OVER THEIR HABITATS, WE HAVE DEPRIVED THEM OF THEIR HOMES - MADE THEM HOMELESS. WITHOUT AMPLE ROOM WITH NATURAL FOODS & SMALLER ANIMALS THEY EAT, THEY STARVE. BUT THIS PATRIARCHAL WORLD RUN BY MEN DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT. ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS EATING STEAKS, ICE CREAM, THEN RAPING WOMEN & CHILDREN, & STARVING ANIMALS. THIS WORLD IS SO EVIL. BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS HUMAN MALES ARE GOING EXTINCT & THE HUMAN RACE OF WOMEN, THE PLANET, & THE ANIMALS, WILL ALL RECOVER......WE ARE ON THE CUSP OF MATRIARCHY NOW. MOTHER GOD HAS TAKEN CARE OF BUSINESS--HER BUSINESS.

8:04 brave doggo goes after polar bear like “woof woof woof”
Love the synthesizer background music, this is a very 1980's mood when the poles became popularized by movies and documentaries with 1980's synthesizer sounds.
'Try to follow adults. It's not easy'. I feel how heart broken you were, man!
A marvelous documentary, thank you for uploading this.
Thank you for making this amazing documentary.
Great video!!
Thanks!
Crystal
Very impressive documentary guys! I’d be super scared of my dog getting possibly mauled.
yea I'd pull my dog back and I'd do the chasing myself. Dog was doing his job though, good dog.
I also feel bad for the bears. Poor animals they're hungry too!
It's heartbreaking that majestic polar bears are so close to extinction 💔
I was so worried the cub wouldn't find any food; very enticing and such a cute little one.
Me encantan estos documentales son hermosos !! Admirable la dedicación y fortaleza de quienes hacen posible vivir visualmente la naturaleza .Gracias !! 👏👏🤗
Wonderful stuff...those majestic creatures..and that little cub!
Great documentary! I don't think that the video so much conveys how large those animals can be. With my wife we saw one up close once around forty years ago, and we still talk about how incredibly massive the bear we experienced was.
4 months ago i saw 2 of them up close i could not believe my eyes they are really huge
Yes, i must have seen a stuffed one to realize how huge they are. When we see them on TV there is never a reference object next to them to get a sense of scale, it is all ice. Their slanky look makes underestimate their size. But they do say once in a while "the largest land predator on earth".
The bear we saw was in a private animal collection in Great Britain. It was alive enough and housed in a containment enclosure.. We stood there in awe of the immense creature.....hard to believe really.
@@f9qo Oh my god that is bad, collecting animals ? how low can people stoop down to, that is a failure at understanding the meaning of life.
Amazing documentary , thank you for sharing
The quality of that documentary was made at all possible only because of that guy Nikita who has learned to survive in their territory without interfering or feeding them. All this filmography is his work really. They said he spend twenty winters there. A legendary man, thanks to him. It's Roosevelt who said, "to be respect speak softly and carry a big stick".
17:36 I love that baby bear who taking a look inside 😔😔😔😔😔😔😔
Perfect documentary!...real life of polar bears.
I'm so obsessed with Polar Bears. I want to watch more.
Better hurry. Polar bears are moving south, and already mixing with brown bears. We are getting another species of bears. Will polar bear have enough ice to get to these islands?
Stunning documentary. Thank you
Wow what a glorious footage!
Can someone recommend any more cool polar bear videos?? I have become obsessed with them and love films like this but I need more!! Thank you!
Haha same with me, i just love to watch them but there arent that many good polarbear videos
Very nice interesting and informative documentary.
very cool and beautiful . I just love the Earth we live on and how life can exist
This video is amazing. You guys should do another season. 👍
Very good documentary!! Very touching. I pray that little orphan made it...🙁
Knowledge Awwwww, seriously?!! 😥😥
Outstanding !! I know it is dangerous for the animal in the long run but I don't know if I would have been able to NOT feed that poor orphan cub that kept hanging around. Who knows if that cub would ever see a human again. These men are fantastic.
yeah they need to import like 10k-90k caribou to the island and some other smaller animals like artic foxes, and other animals, and other food that can sustain harsh environments. This would give the polar bears a chance to survive.
@@Premium_Water
It sure is a difficult situation. I wonder if Polar bears would even be able to successfully hunt and catch that type of prey on a regular basis. We are hearing that wild Polar Bears may go extinct in less than a century. There are already cases of Polar bears and Grizzly bears mating on their own in the wild.
Maybe the Polar bears will continue heading south and eventually create a new species of bear by mixing with brown bears. I don't know much about that type of thing but I did read that somewhere not too long ago. Nature has a way of adapting to changes, whether those changes are from nature or man.
Impossible dilemma... Cameramen went to this region to film polar bears in order to help them to survive. But when one of them asks for help, they judge that it's better not to interfere with Nature and refuse any support for the bear... Seriously?
By the waysI appreciate you beautiful filming of wildlife animals in the Arctic world .
Замечательный фильм! Спасибо!
*This* was amazing ! There's a lot of hungry desperate bears there....... You can't blame these animals for investigating all these inviting smells emanating from these humans.....since these animals can smell a seal for miles.........
The least these guys should do is aquiring some steel doors instead of these rickety wooden scraps that pose for "doors".
It seems they are asking for trouble.......🐻
FOR SURE
It's because if they have to move the station away they might as leave it there. If it's bio degradable easily it wouldn't affect the nature much.
So quick to judge without knowing anything. Typically humans
What a beathiful animal it is...! Even the littlecub soo lovely...!
Im crying multiple time watching this 😢
That dog has some real balls.
^^^@Francesca .. Well derh!, dog's usually do most are afraid of nothing Ha!!! :P] .v (nmcfmf) ..
That's a artic fox
That is a artic fox
protect the earth protect this adorable creature
Some of the most beautiful nightmares you will either watch or get anywhere close to...
Fantasticno snimljeno.
A very nice and beautiful documentary . The kodiak bear and the polar bear are my favourite animals . Can you upload more documentaries about bears ?
Big 👍 Super footage. Some great close-ups. Very well filmed. An enjoyable watch and what a joy (a bit scary perhaps) to be marooned with Polar Bears! - Nature and the Wildlife & Birds within are the Greatest Free Show on Earth - if you have a little patience and 'see' what is around you ◕‿◕
Nanook is the real champion here. Without that dog those bears wouldn’t have much fear. Dogs like that are fearless they will attack to the death there own or the bears and the bears know that! They won’t risk that danger. Dogs are truly our best and most important friends on this planet
No they're not.
it always makes me a little annoyed when people think they have the right to tell field researchers how to do their jobs. Your moral code and self-proclaimed "animal lover" status does not compare to these people who have not only years of study but years of experience working in this field. Wild polar bears are not stray cats or dogs. Do not act like you know better.
mata schmata
I say fly them up there and let them go cuddle with them . The Bears will do much better .
mata schmata loser
T.B. thank you...
The warming of our climate is cyclical and we know that to be true. Through scientific research and data.... Yet on this occasion, those in power see an opportunity to "tax this phenomenon" and so many liberal, gullible types believe this nonsense about Human beings and our activities are warming the climate, and the solar system? It's so preposterous, I can't believe people believe it.
The warming is cyclical and all will be well, and anything that isn't? Well that's life? I'm afraid..
This isn’t cyclical kid, this is a whole lot different to the past, pay attention and stop trying to ignore it, Green lung of earth being chopped down, plastic seas, ( lets not forget about trash in space ), extinctions, and then thinking it’s just like past events that our planet is heating up this fast and has this many events happening? People like u trigger me tbh
@@eyesopen66 has his eyes totally closed.
When you're empathizing so hard with a polar bear- you look at a barking dog and think- 'that's a tasty little morsel'
When you like human beings so much, just think about the western ones, eating far too much. And WHAT do they eat, on average? The answer can easily stop your love for human beings. Homo sapiens? Think twice!
Thanks!
Fascinating! ❤️
It would be VERY difficult to watch that cub starve! I don't know if I could do it, probably not!
I probably couldn't...
That guy running at the bears with a stick is gonna meet the wrong bear someday.
Two words....Timothy Treadwell.
he did it against a cub ,remember.
the guys nuts
The alternative was to shoot the polar bear in his cute face.
I hope 😁
A great video I enjoyed it.
I'm amaze this documentary about the polar bear this 3 men in the island 🏝️ was so good and it hard to make a documentary and leave for almost a week...
True bear dudes, thank you for bringing this story to us. Hope PB's can adapt fast enough to make it thru current warming trend-apparently sped up with human influence. Hopefully, they can learn to depend less on ice fast, get busy adapting like other bears do. More bear bellies full of beluga and bird's eggs in summer or learn to gang-up, kill walrus, hibernate in summer. Hopefully, they won't have to head south for berries, devolve back into brown version,. Black bear numbers in US growing like crazy over past 20 years, reside in all states now, except Hawaii.

You,re a Hero....👍👍👍
i cries several times when watching this vid and i hope that cub could survive god bless polar bear
One time meal for that bear cub won't hurt anybody. How can someone refuse that sad face😞😞...that cub was so hungry that he had no option left but to ask food from human and following them thinking they might be his mother. So sad😞😞
Woww,, wild polar bear,,,😀😀
Best documentary sir 👍👍👏
The Arctic circle has some really strong currents! I was above the circle while serving in the US Navy. It was extremely cold. We wore a rubber jacket for the wind chill...
LMAOOOOO when he chased the bear with a big stick.... i always thought that polar bears were the most dangerous things ever and you'd die if you got too close but ol dude chased him away with a stick lol
Yeah they're surprisingly not that aggro towards humans. However it does depend on the polar bear. You will become a snack if you encounter one thats really desperate for food.
Cause Polar Bear doesn't want to deal with a moron.
@@LuxMeow you mean that you could do a better documentary about polar bears
d t: Polar bears are hurt by conventional nonsense that depicts them as routine man hunters. As the narrator said, they have to be provoked or desperate to eat in order to hurt people. We simply lack the blubber they need to remain healthy. My conclusions about important matters are never memorized from third parties, then passed on, but based on data. Since 1870, polar bears have killed only 20 people, and only two of those in Churchill, Manitoba (1968 & 1983), where they freely roam the streets. A high percentage of their kills were of people who had already shot them. We cannot ask polar bears to regret that they have but one life to lose to human sadism. The data does not portray man killer.

This guy must be slav. Stranded on a isolated island with hungry 700kg bears, willingly.
Great Video ❤️
I was watching something on my phone and when I looked up I saw a guy with a stick running after a polar bear
That dog of his is beautiful
Touching love it
The most adorable cutie bears around !
I would MUCH RATHER have the murders (serial killers-rapists) around the world starve to death than these beautiful creatures!
Polar Bears are more human than those "people" will ever be
Andrei Popov there are more crimes than murder and rape
Or release the rapists on the ice and let em go.. same for death row
Lewis C. That’s hugely fucked also thanks to the 13th prisoners are already modern day slaves
Everyone would
This is a great documentary and a sorrowful tale.
I really wonder how the poor orphant cub is and what we should do for him/her...
sno nothing, it's nature, let nature takes it course
Dave Cornette acid precipitation, air pollution, oil spill, radioactive contamination, or global warming. it's not nature. everything for us to do against it.
@@kaseichan100 I never get these people. It's like cutting someones legs off and sending him off to a marathon "It's not fair if I help you now"
Tnx for all people who film it
Beautiful video
I'm in love with the cub🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍
wow i was always told that if you come across a polar bear you are 100% dead, but this dude just chased him away with a long metal pole.
Actually wooden tho, a long small wooden pole
Depends how hungry the bear is and what your defences are. You don't have a weapon? No base to hide in? You're a sitting duck and humans are highly caloric. Even more so now with our less than ideal diets. If the effort to eat us is more than the reward they won't get into it unless desperate.
They have a natural fear of humans
@makingadifference er, no. No they do not have a natural fear of humans. They ARE cautious of humans, to a degree. The same way they would treat another polar bear with caution, or a walrus. They know that we have POTENTIAL to be dangerous. But they are not scared of us at all; polar bears see people as prey. This bear ran because a fight would not be worth it given how little food it has available. If it lost the loss of calories would have been too costly, but the bear is clearly well fed enough not to be desperate enough to go for broke. It can wait, so it will wait for an easier meal.
Lady Lolipop Yea they dont have a natural fear because in the past humans didnt come in contact with them, at least very rarely. Some other animals do have natural fears, even lions did but not so much anymore because they arent hunted anymore by humans.
@7:27 - I love the dudes nervous laugh!
I love learning bout polar bears
Can’t believe what a poor door and window construction! Like a bad garden shed! They need a carpenter for next journey ! And I’m happy to go :)
