Polar bears take over abandoned research station in Russian Arctic
Polar bears have taken over an abandoned Soviet polar research station on small island off Russia's far northeastern cost. Vadim Makhorov, a travel blogger, used a drone to film the bears roaming in and out of the facility's scattered buildings in the late summer Arctic sun this month on Kolyuchin Island in the Chukchi Sea. One snapped at the drone as it approached. Others playfully poked their heads out of the buildings as they were filmed. Scientists left the research station, which is in an abandoned village, soon after the Soviet Union's collapse over three decades ago.
