A Very Rare White Bear Caught On Camera By Natural Resources Center Professor

Ilpo Kojola, a research professor at the Natural Resources Center, says that the bear is very rare.- It's special. Yes, it caught my eye very suddenly when it came to the area. This is what Veijo Toivoniemi from Haapajoki says, who managed to capture an exceptionally special white bear. Toivoniemi took the pictures in Kuhmo Lentiira, a bear-watching area a few kilometers from the Russian border.



However, all bears are wild and by no means domesticated, Toivoniemi says. Yes, they frighten people easily, and there must be a quiet mouse in the shooting booths, he says. Yes, I knew that such a bear had been seen in the area before, but no pictures have been received of it. I happened to have better conditions, and it came to good luck. Toivoniemi says that the bear stayed in the area for only 10–15 minutes. It had visited the site once before, but left quickly after the crows were embarrassed by it.
