If we lose ice, we stand to lose an entire ecosystem. I hope we can realize through my photography how interconnected these species are to ice. It just takes one image to get someone’s attention."]]> 2017-12-15 16:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216538330 alex_cravens https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216539403 2017-12-15 16:24:13 UTC https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216539403 alex_cravens https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216546948 2017-12-15 16:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216546948 alex_cravens https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216547702 2017-12-15 16:43:58 UTC https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216547702 alex_cravens https://padlet.com/alex_cravens/rhqm2vf7xn0q/wish/216548615 Why? Because polar bears’ main prey — seals — are best hunted on sea ice. Without sea ice, polar bears cannot catch enough seals to eat — and without enough seals to eat, they are unlikely to gain enough weight to survive their autumn to summer fast (Derocher 2013, Stirling 2012).
