stuny Posted November 12, 2010 Share #1 Posted November 12, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) This polar bear was curious enough to stand up to look in our tundra rover. to get thsi shot I opened a window and leaned out. I've included a picture of barbara posing with the rover so that you will get a sense of scale. The rover Barbara is posing with is 25% smaller than the one we were on. D2 for all three shots.

JeTexas Posted November 18, 2010 Share #9 Posted November 18, 2010 You didn't get out for a polar bear hug like in the Nissan Leaf commercial? It must have been quite exciting to see one so close. And remember, as it clearly states in the SAS Survival Guide, never eat polar bear livers, they contain toxic levels of Vitamin A. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted November 18, 2010 Author Share #10 Posted November 18, 2010 J - We saw that ad just after returning and were charmed by it. Also glad cfor your survival tip, just in case all we have to eat is polar bear liver. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
