This is how long polar bears can be underwater #shorts

Sep 3, 2023
Polar bears are capable of holding their breath for extended periods while swimming underwater. They are powerful swimmers and can stay submerged for up to two minutes at a time. However, their typical dives are usually shorter, lasting around 30 seconds on average. These dives are usually used to search for prey or navigate through the water. #polarbear #ecology #wildanimals
