Description
Atiqtalik shows the largest bear in the world and her gentle side. This female roams the freezing sea ice of the Arctic Circle with her thick winter coat for protection. Yet she is vulnerable to extinction. With Arctic sea ice cover declining by about 14% per decade due to climate change it is harder for her to hunt, sometimes forcing her into human settlements. Exploration such as for oil is also disrupting her delicate ecosystem, and a spill could be deadly.

This collection is a take-home size of the larger busts which are part of the Faces Of The Wild conservation project in New York City. A partnership with the WWF to bring awareness for threatened species onto the streets of NYC.

Saving nature is at the very heart of WWF’s work. For over 60 years, the organization has sought to find solutions to help save the marvelous array of life on our planet, by applying the best science available and working closely with local communities who live near and among wildlife. For this reason we have partnered with WWF (USA) to provide 30% of sale proceeds for this item to help protect these vulnerable species.
