Polar Bears Rage On Robot Spycams
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Thursday, 30 of December , 2010 at 1:04 am
To film up close and personal with polar bears, the BBC (who knows a thing or two about making nature shows) decided that it would be kinda cool to deploy an entire fleet of little remote controlled, robotic cameras:
As you can see, the curious polar bears and the cameras didn’t always get along, and several of them were playfully destroyed. Follow the link below (or just go ahead and click here) to watch some of this destruction firsthand… It’s pretty damn funny to see a polar bear chasing a propeller-driven robot on skis across the ice and then trying to eat it.
Update- someone’s ripped the vid onto YouTube, enjoy it while it lasts!

I love how they know it’s not natural, that’s why they’re so interested in it.
