International Polar Bear Day 2021: Quotes To Raise Awareness About The Marine Mammals
02/27/21 AT 9:20 AM
International Polar Bear Day is annually commemorated on Feb. 27 to raise awareness about the issues that polar bears face and how to protect them amid the huge climate change threat.
Polar bears are marine mammals, who are found in the Arctic. Polar bears rely heavily on sea ice for traveling, hunting, resting, and mating. However, climate change has largely threatened their habitat.
Here are some quotes, courtesy AZquotes, to celebrate these furry animals on this day:
1. "Polar bears did very well in the warmer times. They didn't die out at all; they didn't die out in the last 10,000 years, nor during the previous interglacial, nor the one before that. So, they're just used as a deceitful heartthrob; you know, to pluck your heartstrings because the polar bears might die out." – Piers Corbyn
