USGS scientist Todd Atwood and his team explore why polar bears have been turning up in record numbers in northern Alaska in addition to the 40% decline in the polar bear population in the South Beaufort Sea since 2006, discovering connections with climate change and exploration for untapped fossil fuels. Examines the yearly gathering of polar bears in Kaktovik, Alaska, and the effect of their presence on the local people.
