Polar Bears on Koluchin island, Chukotka
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Top AirVuz contributor Makhorov was picked as a DVOW Finalist for this fantastic drone video of polar bears in Russia's Far East. The video was filmed at an abandoned polar station on (now uninhabited) Koluchin Island, which is located in the Chukchi Sea (an inlet of the Arctic Sea) just north of the Chukchi Peninsula, Russia's easternmost land mass. The polar station was established in 1943 and abandoned in the early 1990's following the dissolution of the USSR. This video footage appeared in a September, 2025 BBC news story.
