Polar Bear Day

It's my special day!!!

Date When Celebrated : This holiday is always held on February 27th

Polar Bear Day celebrates the world's largest carnivore. A polar bear can grow up to nine feet tall(when standing) and 1400 pounds. They are a favorite at zoos around the country. Polar bears live at the North Pole region, and are native to Alaska, Canada, Greenland, Norway, and Russia.  

Need some ideas on how to celebrate today?  Tops on my list is visiting the local zoo to see  live polar bears. Teachers like to use this day to teach about polar bears and other bears, as kids are fascinated with all kinds of bears. Also, check the nature channels on cable TV. The networks often pick up on holidays like today, and run documentaries.

Did you Know? It is believed that all polar bears are left handed. See Left Hander's Day
