Arctic Warnings and Dangers: 11 reviews and 17 photos
At first I could not believe it, but it definitely is true:
Polar Bears are an acute danger in Svalbard - and even in settlements like Longyearbyen you are not safe! There is a warning out that you should always carry a rifle when leaving the settlement - and that is no joke at all! All over you can hear about encounters with polar bears - and many times they are fatal! To the people - not to the bears!
