Feb. 27 - did you know it's National Polar Bear Day?
Polar Bears take a bow. Today (Feb. 27) is your day. February 27 is National Polar Bear Day.
Polar Bears International, the world's leading polar bear conservation group—dedicated to saving polar bears by saving their sea ice habitat, is the sponsor of the day, which has special meaning in Ada and Ohio Northern University.
After all: Ada is the capital of polar bears in Ohio, or as the ONU Alumni Association states on its Facebook page tonight, "From our tundra to yours."
