- Characteristics: Polar bear cubs are born in what’s known as a “maternity den,” which is a tunnel dug by the mother polar bear in a snowdrift with enough chambers to house her young. Hand painted and immaculately crafted, this polar bear baby is tagging along behind its mother to learn how to hunt!
- Size and Color: This cub blends in perfectly with the Arctic snowdrifts and tundra with its sheet white coat. Standing 1.75 inches tall and 2.75 inches long, our poplar bear cub model is about as tall as a ball point pen cap an as long as a deck of cards stood upright.

History:
Like many Arctic species, polar bears are classified as a vulnerable species on the conservation status spectrum and are detrimentally effected by climate change and global warming. Polar bears are reliant on sea ice in order to hunt aquatic animals like seals. Seal are an important part of a polar bear’s diet because consuming them allows the bears to build up their fat reserves to not only survive the colder seasons, but also have enough body fat to give birth to and care for their cubs. If you decide to take this precious polar bear cub home, make sure to pick up its mother so it has a parent to take care of it!
