Be a Predator: Polar Bear vs. Leopard Seals | Wild Life Documentary
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
Mirages are shaping over the immaculate ice shelf. Close up shot of a bear inhaling the frozen air. From the bear’s point of view, we understand that... he is smelling a seal. This odour is that of a young ringed seal hidden under a thin layer of snow. A few steps and paw swipes to clear the animal and uncover a young ringed seal snack. Under the ice shelf, protected from bears by several meters of frozen ice, belugas- the white whales- are hunting halibut. In their tridimensional environment, individuals can communicate the good hunting spots while kilometres apart. The chattering of these ghost hunters is continuous.
At the South Pole, leopard seals hunt in silence. But they are nonetheless excellent tacticians. Their hunt is based on their excellent sight, experience and a perfect knowledge of their prey’s calendar. When do the parent penguins go off to feed at sea, when do they return, when are the young going to take their first bath and where exactly will they get into the water? The answers to these questions are all part of the leopard seal’s hunting culture. We follow his adventures under the surface of ice-covered bays. When his hunting season comes to an end at fall, the Northern spring wakes the polar bear which goes off to hunt. Our year in the lives of Pole predators comes to a close.

Why do that to the innocent polar bears? The libturds would poison them with their spoiled brain, especially with the like of The Fake Christian libturd like the one who uses the handle of Pope Francis above. These fake Christians love to free criminals to prey on us law abiding citizens but do not think twice about killing babies. That tells you they have diarrhea for brain.

What they don't tell you is how global warming has affected the taste of baby polar bear meat. It used to be prized for its tenderness and it tasted like veal. Now the meat taste like crap. Their fur does not get the price that it used to either. You need to kill four immature polar bears to get only half the money that a single one used to get you on the fair market

You have got to be kidding me! They got ZERO decent footage. All they did was piece together some b-roll. How in the world can you say this was “the best”? This absolutely sucked!! Zero kills, zero action. This was nothing but a production film. Ugh. “The Best”, hahaha.
superb job done by te whole team...
That was an excellent documentary,. Fabulous photography and well presented educational information.
I hate it when these people try to tell you what it was like thousands of years ago for animals like it’s a fact when in reality they don’t know anymore than you or I do-especially when time after time these people get their “facts” wrong.

They both find life tough, but the polar bear is deemed Vulnerable on the CITES list, whereas the leopard seal is listed as Least Concern. Excellent documentary!
Outstanding documentary.
Aside from the global warming bullshit and polar bears evolving from another type of bear, this documentary was actually pretty good.

The photographers should go ahead and help the surviving penguin. It is the only humane thing to do. Of course, most of these photographers are nothing but scum, staging photos, setting traps to allow a predator to catch an easy ambush right in front of their camera. They get no admiration from me. Do you gullible fools really think the photogs are following some code of ethics?

the narrator said polar bears depend solely on seals?? While polar bears mostly go after seals, Polar bears will also take on Walrus and Beluga whales. Though the Walrus are a very dangerous prey animal with those large tusks capable of inflicting some serious damage on a polar bear. And the large Walruses form a wall around their young, making it difficult for the bear to get to them.
