Presentation Transcript

  1. Hudson, a 6 year old sled dog meets 1200 lb polar bear. The bear approached Hudson in a loping way .. Inviting play. Hudson didn’t bark or flee – he wagged his tail and bowed, a classic play signal.

  2. The two wrestled and rolled around so energetically that at one point the bear had to lie down, belly up; a universal sign in the animal kingdom for a time-out.

  3. At another point during their romp, the bear paused to envelope Hudson in an affectionate embrace.

  4. They met every night for a week they met for a play date.

  5. After a week the ice on the bay was thick enough for the famished but entertained polar bear to return to his hunting grounds for seal. Play is a tremendously powerful force throughout nature. Comments from the book: Play - How It Shapes the Brain, Opens the Imagination and Invigorates the Soul by Stuart Brown NB: not sure who to acknowledge for the photos .. Someone sent them to me.
