Polar Bears have come to the forefront of public attention in recent years due to growing evidence of their diminishing habitat as a result of climate change. Found roaming on the vast icy plains of the great white circumpolar arctic, the Polar Bear is considered the largest land-living carnivore in the world. Photographed in their natural environment by award-winning photographers, National Geographic Polar Bears 2014 offers a dynamic collection of close-ups of this extraordinary animal.
