Help make a difference in the life of a polar bear just by driving the South Norfolk Jordan Bridge! The world’s largest terrestrial carnivores populate and hunt the arctic sea ice in northern Canada, Greenland, Norway and Russia between late-April and mid-July. Climate changes impacting sea ice formation are causing the polar bears to face grave survival challenges because they have less time to hunt as their ice habitat shrinks.
