In September 2021 A Russian photographer (Dmitry Kokh) captured a fascinating series of photos showing polar bears that took over the abandoned buildings of a meteorological station on an island between Russia and Alaska. The island is located in the Chukchi Sea, a marginal sea of the Arctic Ocean.

You hungry? Because I am...

[-] Talaraine@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago

Oh my gosh...everything about this photo is appealing. I love it!

I have to say the knowledge of how enormously lethal polar bears are does put a slight damper on this image for me. These things can kill you easy, and I would not want to be this close to one. Let alone two.

Nah, If you sit on their head they won't be able to open their jaws and bite you.

[-] FfaerieOxide@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Are you sure?

Last time I sat on someone's head their jaw was certainty able to move.

PTSD/flashback of Movie ANNIHILATION, bear/house scene....

[-] TheLobotomist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 years ago

I've never seen it, do you recommend it?

[-] Blademax@lemmy.one 5 points 2 years ago

Personally, it's sci-fi that is twisted and disturbing. Like if Arrival/Interstellar gone WTF direction...

Not sure if that's a genre that peaks your interests.

[-] TheLobotomist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

A WTF Interstellar? Hold my popocorns

[-] Blademax@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

[-] variants@possumpat.io 3 points 2 years ago
