The Polar Bears have endured starvation, following a succession of mild winters leaving them with only scraps to feed on.

However, as the last winter has been cold, the bears may be in better shape and may even have newborn cubs. Amazing footage as Saba Douglas Hamilton finds both her female polar bears and discovers that both have survived the winter with new cubs.
