@naturalworldsafaris: Polar Bear Vs Beluga Whale...On one of our recent trips up in the high #arctic pack ice, #BenjaminHardman came across a pod of #Beluga whales swimming along the ice edge whilst on a #Svalbard Safaris with us. Soon after spotting the Beluga, a #PolarBear came into view from the distance and tried twice to hunt one of the Beluga as they surfaced for air. Being a crew member aboard the #RVKinfish , Benjamin was exceedingly careful when capturing this moment from an aerial perspective. This was the first time he had flown a drone to document wildlife in the Arctic. Benjamin was conscious of maintaining a large distance to avoid any disturbance to the Bear and Beluga's behaviours. This scene was captured in the international marginal ice zone, sitting just south of the North Pole more than 12 nautical miles from the northern top of Svalbard.
