  • Dr. Steve Amstrup, USGS biologist, takes the skull measurement of a large male polar bear on the ice pack of the Beaufort Sea.

  • Dr. Steven Amstrup, lead scientist for the US Geological Survey, darts a female polar bear on the Beaufort Sea. Darting the bears from a helicopter can be extremely treacherous. The pilot has to hover over a running animal that is twisting and turning, dodging and ducking, an animal that feels it's running for its life. This bear is hit directly between the shoulders with an immobilizing dart. It takes anywhere from 4-15 minutes for the drug to take effect and immobilize the bear which will be out for 1-2 hours as the scientists process the data.
