Magnetic North Pole Expedition

... Who are they ? Friends or enemies?  This formidable force of nature that are the bears and which live on this white desert, our team is likely to meet them...

The polar bear is an unforeseeable predator. It is a carvivore which nourishes seals and Morses. The thick grease of these animals attracts it and although it is short-sighted, its sense of smell is exceptional. Beautiful, crafty one and camouflaged by his thick white fur, it watches for its preys. High from its 8 to 11 feet (1,5 to 3 m.) of height, they weigh between 100 to 1400 pounds (230 to 730 kg). Consequently, it is significant always to remain on its guards.
