"Not just the Polar Bear or Penguins - Biodiversity in the Polar Regions"
At the Earth's polar regions, life exists under difficult conditions, with extreme cold, harsh weather, and long periods without daylight. Life has evolved in many unusual ways to be able to thrive in the polar regions - life in the polar regions extends far beyond penguins and polar bears. In this talk with Dr. R Badhe, they will explore what lives at the poles, from the microscopic plankton to the massive whales, and birds that fly from the Arctic to the Antarctic and back every year. Of course, there will be some penguins and polar bears too!
