The polar bears patiently wait for the area around Churchill, Manitoba to freeze over so their search for ringed seals can begin. Global warming is beginning to have an impact on these Polar Bears as the ice is melting sooner than it should be and it is taking longer for the weather to change to the Arctic temperatures.
