The Dhaka Times Desk A stunning photograph of a moment in the life of a lone polar bear standing on a floating ice shelf in the Arctic Ocean has recently become quite famous. Let's know about the most beautiful and famous photograph.
Italian photographer Marco Gaiotto The photograph was captured on camera during a wildlife tour by boat. An orange sunset is captured in the background of the picture. A lone polar bear was trapped in an ice floes in search of food. No matter how artistic the photograph is – the message behind the photograph is very disturbing.
Located at the northernmost tip of the Earth, the Arctic Ocean is covered with ice almost all year round. Due to the recent melting of the ice, the biodiversity there is threatened. This photograph is proof that the ice is melting very fast in that region, especially in the northern part of Norway.
According to Marco, he was on the boat when the photograph was taken. The animals in the area are very curious and try to attract attention when they see a ship. After several hours of following the icy chai, the bear was spotted by Marco and his fellow travelers. The bear stayed there for about an hour and then left.
It is impossible to know where the bear actually took up residence. Usually such bears can cover a distance of about ten kilometers in a day and can also reach from one ice block to another by jumping or crawling.
