In this episode, we travel to the Arctic to learn all about polar bears! Discover how their giant paws, thick fur, and clever hunting skills help them survive freezing temperatures. We explore their life cycle, behaviours, and how they’re different from other bears—plus, why they don’t eat penguins! Then, we answer listener questions about sea animals in winter, the magical northern lights, and whether the North Pole belongs to any continent.  Sleep Tight!,  Sheryl & Clark ❤️👂📖 --- ✨ Want more stories and fewer interruptions?
