I'm not going to get all negative because this is definitely really cool study material. but jpelectrondotcom makes a good point. How about using those robotics to make something to help them not die off.
@Glickstick Perhaps they have by showing the unwashed masses just how lovely and incredible the bears really are, perhaps this program will inspire a few more people to help.
I saw the complete episode of this on Discovery Channel (in the US) very interesting but rather sad...
How come we don't create a faux iceberg that is really a powered "raft" to help all the bears get where they are going? They hop on, and we drive it or via GPS it drives itself.
I'm all for technology, and using robotic cameras to see what we normally wouldn't, but how about we take the next step and use technology to actually DO SOMETHING, rather than just make TV?
THEY SHOULD PUT CAMS LIKE THIS TO PREVENT SEA LIONS KILLINGS IN CANADA AND IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD. THESE CAM MIGHT BE THE ANSWER SO SAVING TONS OF ANIMALS. THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE!
Snowball cam is hardly indestructable. A bear crushed it on another video. I guess they shouldn't have put their faith in plastic. Use titanium next time.
I swear Tennant's done some voicing for other nature programs...something to do with shoals of fish or something? I can't find any footage of it so I could have mistaken the gorgeous Scottish voice on it for David's.
looks like a scene from starwars

If I was there and had a rifle I'd have two polar bear felts in my living room right now! I'd also make a parka out of one of it's heads.

Well done to the BBC and all the camera techies,
brilliant footage, great narration and the best film I've watched this Christmas!
Again well done to everyone involved in this production.
Please let me know how you transferred the video from sky hd onto your computer?
Happy New Year to all the production team, great job
