Where Polar Bears Live

A Home of Ice and Snow

   Would you like to live in ice or snow? Well, polar bears 

do. In fact, they live in lots of places. They live in Russia, 

Greenland, Canada and Alaska, which is in the United 

States. These places are full of ice and snow.

   However, their homes are getting warmer everyday. 

Please help the marine mammal's lives.

What Polar Bears 

Look Like

What do they look like?

   A polar bear has black skin and their fur 

is clear. A polar bear has big paws the size 

of a dinner plate. A polar bear is big.

Written by Stella

   I use to think that polar bears had white fur but

polar bears have clear fur! The sun makes the fur white 

because of the reflection. Polar bears have black skin and it 

keeps them warm in the Arctic and other cold places in

 Canada, U.S.A and Churchill.

   They have sharp claws and use them to catch their food,

which is seals and more. Polar bears have four paws that

they use to swim. They swim to get to land, find food and 

to get home. Polar bears use their paws to walk on dirt,

grass and ice. They walk on ice to find seals and more

food.

Polar Bear 

Activities 

Activities

  Did you know that polar bears love sparing, 

trying to get seals and training their cubs so they 

can fight?

  They hunt for seals on Hudson Bay so they 

can eat seal blubber to survive against their 

enemies. They have to eat because if they 

don't, they won't have cubs. That is sad.

Written by Dylan

Polar Bear Lives

   Polar bear lives are extremely difficult! Everyday, polar bears struggle 

for food, mates and blubber. Throughout the day, they wait patiently by a 

ringed seal breathing hole for seconds, minutes and hours. Just lying, 

rolling and trying to entertain themselves. Finally, a ringed seal pokes his 

head up. SWAP! The bear crashes it's paw into the ringed seal. WOW!

   The polar bear then walks away into a park called, Wapusk National 

Park of Canada. The bear comes across a den and mates. The cubs will 

be born in 3 months.

   Mom polar bears are having less cubs because moms aren't getting 

enough food. The ice is also melting and the mom is swimming farther 

distances. The babies can't catch up and they will drown.

   We desperately need to think about how to make polar bear lives easier.

Written by Nate

Activities

   Polar bears don't do much throughout the day.   All 

they really only do is spar, hunt, walk around and 

sleep. These are the main things polar bears do 

during their day and night.

   If a polar bear was sleeping, I wouldn't want to pet 

it. Would you?

Written by David

What Polar 

Bears Eat

Snatch! Yum!

   Polar bears love ringed seals. They are their favorite type 

of seal as seals give the polar bear blubber that helps polar 

bears stay alive. After eating a yummy seal, the polar bear 

doesn't have to eat until another week. Polar bears wait and 

wait at the seals breathing hole. Suddenly, a seal pokes it's 

head up for a breath. SNATCH! The seal is gone and the polar 

bear is full of it's supper. There's only enough bites left for the 

Arctic fox. Now the polar bear has to wait again to get it's 

paws on another seal.

Written by Brandi

What Polar Bears Eat

   Do you know what polar bears eat? Polar bears 

eat seals and fish. They eat seals because the seals 

give them blubber. They need blubber to stay alive. 

If they have no blubber, they might die. They wait 

patiently at a breathing hole for the seal to come 

up.

   Please help protect these beautiful animals from 

dying.

Written by Kadyn

   Food

   Did you know that polar bears hunt seals, walruses, whales 

and fish! Polar bears need blubber to make them fat. The 

polar bear's paw is the size of a dinner plate. Scientists 

dropped dead pigs down onto Hudson Bay because polar 

bears were starving. It helped them 

a little bit as some polar bears ate the pigs. The polar bear 

needs lots of food. If they don't get enough food, they will 

starve.

Written by Isaiah

How Polar Bears Hunt

   Polar bears catch seals by waiting at breathing 

holes.Then when a seal pops up, they will jump on 

it. They will also go up behind it and attack it to eat.

 If you ever saw a polar bear hunt, then it would be 

one of the most incredible things you have ever 

seen!

Written by Maggie

What Polar Bears Hunt

   Did you know a polar bears favorite food is the ringed seal? When polar bears 

are hunting, they have to be very patient because seals have more than one 

breathing hole.

Polar bears hunt seals because of their blubber. They need blubber to survive. 

Some polar bears will even hunt walruses. Walruses are also sea creatures. 

Some polar bears are known to eat killer whales.

   Scientists tried to HELP polar bears by raising pigs because the pigs had blubber! 

They gave the bears dead pigs. But not many polar bears cared for those piggies. 

Some polar bears ate them.

   Polar bears are hunted by the Inuit people but the Inuit use everything from the 

polar bear. Inuit are people that live up north and depend on the polar bear to live 

because they need the food and fur. The Inuit pray when they kill a polar bear.

   Polar bears aren't as good at hunting when they are under water. 

Polar bears swim up to 35 km per hour and can hold their breath for over 

four minutes long.

   In order for polar bears to hunt seals, people need to stop 

global warming. Melting ice will cause less polar bears, less seals 

and less fish.  

So please stop littering because it would HELP! Stop making the ice 

melt so polar bears can hunt!

Written by Mitchel

Hunting

   Did you know that a polar bears favorite food is the seal? But there 

absolute favorite seal is the ringed seal. Polar bears need seals for their 

blubber.

   Polar bears sometimes hunt walruses. Walruses can hurt a polar bear 

with their tusks. In the summertime in Churchill, polar bears hunt fish.

    Did you know that polar bears are the largest land carnivore?

Polar bears aren't getting enough seals because of people causing the 

Earth to warm up. The ice is melting faster and faster every year. We 

need to stop causing global warming.

Written by David

Polar bear cubs

   Awww! If you could imagine a little cute cub right in your 

face, what would you do? Polar bear cubs are smaller than a 

human baby. They weigh about 1 pound when they are 

born. A baby cub will stay with their mom for 2 years. 

Sometimes a mother will have 1 or 2 babies. If a mother 

has 2 babies, they are called twins. Babies are born blind 

when they are born. But unfortunately, sometimes the baby 

will pass away because their mom can't find food to feed 

her babies.

    If you could have a chance to see a baby polar bear, I 

would take the chance.

Written by Maggie 

A Home

   Do you know where polar bears live? Well if you don't know, I'll tell 

you. They live in a side of a hill as they don't mind the snow.

   Close to six months after the mother gives birth, she pokes her head 

out of the den to make sure there are no other polar bears around or 

anything that could hurt her babies. The mom goes back inside to feed 

her babies.

   Polar bears usually have two babies but since global warming, they 

only have one because the mother doesn't have as much food. 

Sometimes the baby does not live because the mother doesn't have 

enough food. Global warming can effect polar bears lives. Please help! 

They need us.

The Effects of Global 

Warming on Polar Bears

Polar Bears Can't Hunt Food!

    Do you know why polar bears can't hunt food? Global Warming! 

Global warming is causing the ice to melt in the Arctic. 

Without the ice, polar bears can't find food. 

   A polar bears favorite food is a ringed seal. Polar bears 

love seals because of their blubber. They will also eat fish, 

sometimes killer whales and if they can't find any food then 

they will eat garbage. They are not supposed to do that so 

we need to help polar bears.

Written by Maggie

Global Warming

   Did you know that the Earth is getting hotter? Stop 

using so much electricity. Since the ice is melting, 

polar bears are being forced to eat our garbage and 

that's bad because polar bears don't get enough 

seals. Polar bears need seals in order to stay warm for 

the winter!

   Stop building factories! It pollutes the air and 

poisons the polar bears!

Written by Logan

Global Warming

   Polar bears are dying! Global warming is causing polar bears to die. 

People are the ones causing it. They are doing it by keeping their lights 

on, keeping their cars on at drive-thru restaurants and stores, etc.

   Global warming is when the Earth heats up for certain reasons and 

this is what is killing polar bears. Did you know that it's hard to find 

food for polar bears? Well, it is because of global warming. We need to 

save POLAR BEARS! 

   We can help them by not cutting down trees, not keeping our lights 

on when we are not using them and try not to go in a drive-thru. 

Please help me save these wonderful creatures.

Written by Jaden

Global Warming

   Oh no! Did you know that you are causing global warming? It's bad 

for you to smoke as you're polluting the world. Polar bears are dying 

because of global warming. You know it's never too late to help polar 

bears.

   You can help stop global warming by not smoking as it pollutes the 

air, pick up garbage everywhere, recycle, don't waste paper and recycle 

batteries. No matter what it is, you need to do it. Everything matters, 

including polar bears.

   When the sea ice melts, the ocean goes higher and this means less 

polar bears and seals. So please help polar bears by not causing global 

warming. No matter how big or small it is, you have to make a 

difference. Polar bears are in danger so help polar bears. I can't do it 

alone so help me save the beautiful polar bear NOW!

Written by Gerri

Global Warming

   Global warming is causing polar bears to not get food. Global 

warming is a bad thing for polar bears. It means that where 

polar bears live, the air is getting hotter. This is 

making the ice melt. When polar bears don't get their food, 

they die.   The mother polar bear tries to find food to get the 

blubber but they can't find it as the ice is melting. People are 

making global warming happen. So STOP what you're doing and 

help polar bears. Please help. Thank you.

Written by Angel

Enemies

   Did you know you can help polar bears? To help polar bears, you 

need to car pool. 

   A polar bear's enemies are other polar bears and killer whales. A 

killer whale is an enemy because if a polar bear is on the ice, a killer 

whale would tip the iceberg and get the polar bear.

   An Arctic fox is a friend to the polar bear. If a bear catches the 

seal, the polar bear would eat the blubber and the Arctic fox will eat 

the leftovers.

   Global warming is melting the ice so please help in raising money 

for the polar bears.

   Thank you!

Written by Myles

Enemies

  Did you know that polar bears have enemies? They are 

endangered because of their enemies. Polar bears try to go 

away but their enemies get them. 

   Do you know that a grizzly bear could be an enemy if 

global warming doesn't stop? Global warming is another 

enemy, as the ice is melting and polar bears can't get food. 

People are hunting them and that is another enemy of the 

polar bear.

   Do you want to help me protect polar bears? Can you help 

me protect these wonderful polar bears?

   Thank you!

Polar Bear Enemies

   Did you know that polar bears are dying because of 

global warming?

   Polar bears enemies are people because people are 

turning on cars and too many lights. This is global 

warming.

   Global warming is when people are not taking care of 

the Earth.

Written by Nick

Help

    We need to help polar bears. We can turn off our 

cars and turn off Minecraft when you are not using 

it. We can use electric powered cars. They use 

electricity and no gas. Turn off your lights and use 

natural light. You can play with Pokemon toys 

instead of playing on the computer.

   We can't imagine a world without polar bears!

Written by Adam

Global Warming

   We can help polar bears by going on a bus and car 

pooling. That helps polar bears because it stops global 

warming. The ice is melting so they can not eat seals

 and instead, eat garbage. You can help by not 

smoking, walk or ride bikes, use solar power, get 

a car that uses less gas, read more and play less

video games.
