Starting our week spree of #winterwonderland creatures is the majestic #polarbear ❄️🐻❄️ #DYK? That beautiful big snout can sniff out prey from up to 16km away! Best to keep your Christmas pudding locked up tight! #POTD by Shannon Wild #christmascountdown #northpole

That smug feeling when you've wrapped all your presents ahead of time.. #winterwonderland To be fair as a leopard seal it's pretty easy to get around the shops.. 12 feet long & 1000 lbs in weight, not much gets in your way. 💁‍♀️🛍️ #smuglife #POTD by Lynsey Smyth

Ahh last minute #ChristmasShopping chaos. The males engage in an annual ritual of disorganisation. In a risky strategy to assert dominance, some leave present purchasing until near the stroke of midnight Christmas Eve. #POTD by wrangborg.se #realchristmasfacts #winterwonderland

It's lovely that photographers can donate images and film via Wildscreen Exchange to good causes, to help them make a difference. Here @AldridgePhoto's rhino footage helps @RhinosBotswana's friends working to keep rhinos safe in South Africa #Hannelore #Kariega youtube.com/watch?v=s5tUlp…

#DYK? Baby owls are called owlets! 😍 Once hatched, owlets remain in the nest for between 6 and 7 weeks, and begin to fly between 10 and 12 weeks old. The owlets are voracious feeders and weigh around 75% of their adult weight by the time they leave the nest! 🐽 📸 Ray Hennessy
