And it's also just cool.

They're excited to be there.

There's animals around who aren't used to people, so they'll come right up to them.

Do you remember Alan Crawford, the 20-year-old Canadian captain?

He's the leader, but he's just really into science.

So he's like running around documenting all the plants and animals he can find, like drawing sketches of little flowers.

There's walrus, foxes, owls, seagulls, a ton of polar bears, which Ada doesn't like.

The polar bears are so numerous that they often will have polar bears on multiple sides of them at any given time.

I think the guys actually have surprisingly good skills.

Yeah.

Nice.

But that doesn't protect them from being taken advantage of.

Yeah.

The thing to know about polar bears, their constant neighbors, is that they are one of the only animals that will actively hunt and eat people.

We are their prey.
