Just Another Day In The North Pole

It’s common to see birds trying to disrupt flights in airports. Some airports even employ staff to keep them away, but this will probably be the first time you’ll see a polar bear delaying flights. However, sightings like this are more common, especially if you’re flying from an airport in the Arctic Circle. 

This bear was one of the many spotted wandering the Wiley Post–Will Rogers Memorial Airport in Barrow, Alaska. Workers at the airport were also forced to seek assistance from authorities to deal with a caribou and even a seal. Considering the cold weather in the arctic, perhaps they were just seeking flights to warmer areas.
