Hungry Polar Bear Ambushes Seal | 4K UHD | The Hunt | BBC Earth

[@laalaa99stl]

Glad the bear was able to seal the deal. And deal the seal.

Incredible

[@wanimalus]

Watching the migration of monarch butterflies was a journey of transformation, however, should we be romanticizing their epic voyage?

We got another fascinating arctic inhabitant on camera: the snowy owl. Unfortunately, if the number of lemmings keeps dropping, things will get more challenging for them to survive. Not only in terms of starving, but they also don't lay eggs if they don't find enough food, so we might see fewer snowy owls in the future.

[@Wynn1953]

I have just turned 70 a few days ago and I have so many memories of watching the above and similar wildlife programme 's on my parents tv as a child now 60+ years on & it's gotten so much worse. The lovely gentleman Mr Attenborough is one of those people who have the knowledge to show the governments of our beautiful planet how to turn things around so that we can all do our best to work in harmony to save us all but if no one listens then I fear that in perhaps a 100 years or less it'll be all over for everyone and every race of man woman and animals.

Amazing video

[@DeeDeevanGogh]

*Two years ago I visited a place called Churchill in Manitoba Canada. I went on an excursion in an all terrain vehicle called the Tundra Buggy. It was massive. We drove out and saw 4 polar bears, but the highlight came when a large male attacked a seal and got it. That seal had blood spurting out in garden hose size streams everywhere. It was over for him in about 30 seconds. To see it all unfold from 110M away was something I won't ever forget.*

[@SOMeDoOD1992]

Nature is brutal and visceral sometimes.

[@wanimalus]

The assertiveness of the alpha female in a wolf pack was a display of leadership, but it's a bit iffy to glorify these power dynamics, right?

[@DeeDeevanGogh]

Why the heck do you want to see this, when there is so much beauty and perfection in other things of nature to witness. It is frightening and brutal, and the bear had no choice but to do it this way. The only positive in this was that 30 seconds was not such a long time. For me, witnessing even 5 seconds of this would not be a welcomed experience.

That polar bear was vibin' but it's kind of funny how seal remotely was fast. 💜

Imagine being a heavy person wearing a thick fur coat in the pool and jumping out like that and straight running at that speed. No struggle. No pulling up partway and then pushing up. Just straight jumping out and running at speed. Amazing strength.

[@tichu7]

Kudos to that cameraman for having the patience to continue filming the now-vacant piece of ice with a high-speed camera, waiting for the bear to emerge.

[@princesspumpkinpanty]

Bear has to stalk the seal. The taxman does not have to stalk wages.

[@federico_morilla]

It's incredible how the polar bear ambushes the seal exactly when the seal was relaxing 😲😲😲

[@Memeguypost]

The landscape looks very beautiful from camera , but it's a harsh and unforgiving place.

[@wip1664]

I don't think it looks beautiful. Just very white. Very sparse. The cleaner cooler air, however, compared to the air in human occupied territories must be refreshing to breathe. Harsh, yet not as unforgiving as other territories...even human occupied territories.

What's wrong with 1080p? Do you have crappy vision? Most people cant tell the difference from 4K -1080p or 1400p. Clear is clear. It would appear you are all hung up on 4K and have it out for the BBC. This video was pure fine quality from start to finish. Be happy.
