Global Warming Witness: A Mitsuaki Iwago Special

by Staff Writer

Bears in Wager Bay, Northern Canada

Wildlife photographer Mitsuaki Iwago travels the world to capture images of animals in their natural habitat; he takes home poignant photos of wildlife struggling in the ravages of global warming.

Polar Bear

Global Warning Witness, sponsored by Olympus, is a photo and movie documentary of the plight of Polar bears in Wager Bay in Canada’s Arctic. Iwago depicts the effects of climate change on the life of the bears, even as he brings us in awe of Nature’s majestic beauty.

Episode 6 of the documentary shows two bears – mother and son – hopping from one ice floe to the next, wading through melted ice. Nearby, flowers bloom on the exposed earth.

Mitsuaki Iwago is an internationally acclaimed wildlife photographer whose work has twice graced the cover of National Geographic and one of his photos was selected as the best photograph in the wildlife category by Life. His published works include Serengeti: Natural Order on the African Plain, which has become a worldwide bestseller, and many more featuring wildlife.
