Soothe Your Election Anxiety by Spending Some Time With Polar Bears
The last presidential debate in this election season may be over, but we are not yet fully clear – there are still 10 days left until election day, and who knows how many more days or weeks (or months) there are until there is a result. In other words, these stressful times will persist for the foreseeable future. Plus a pandemic.
Each has its own stress management method, but if you’re looking for a new one, we have a suggestion: Live Streaming Adorable Polar Bears. Here’s how to spend (virtual) time with these furry friends.
How to watch a live broadcast of a polar bear
This view of polar bear life is courtesy of Polar Bears International and Explore.org . The live stream has already started ( you can find it here ) and shows polar bears from Churchill, Manitoba.
So what will you see? According to Polar Bears International , you can “watch mums and cubs cuddling, sparring males and lone bears clumsily pacing the snowy tundra.”
And starting November 1, which marks the start of Polar Bear Week and coincides with the annual migration of bears to Churchill, Manitoba, they come together to wait for Hudson Bay to freeze over. they can go back to hunting seals.
How to attend Tundra Connections events virtually
In addition, the Polar Bear Tundra Connections program will run until November 19 . This mix of educational webcasts and real-time chats is intended for students, educators and anyone with an interest or interest in polar bears and the Arctic, and is recorded at Polar Bear International’s Tundra Buggy mobile studio.
