HAUSER BEARS WELCOMES ARCTIC EXPLORER JIM MCNEILL AS NEWEST AMBASSADOR

From Hauser Bears

We are delighted to announce that Jim McNeill, founder of The Ice Warrior project, and British Arctic explorer with over 25 years of experience in monitoring polar bears is now an ambassador for Hauser Bears. Also, you are now able to participate actively in vital research on polar bear data collections on our behalf!

Jim McNeill is an accomplished polar explorer, presenter and keynote speaker, with over 25 years of experience travelling in the Arctic.

He founded the Ice Warrior project in 2001, as a way of combining his love of remote exploration and his background in the environmental science sector. He has guided many groups to the Arctic, including BBC film crews, and sees the role of his organisation as giving people the opportunities to achieve extraordinary feats. Jim brings a passion for the Arctic and polar bears as well as a wealth of experience in dealing with these animals. His expeditions, travelling thousands of miles across the Arctic, give him regular opportunities to monitor polar bear populations for the Norwegian Polar Institute, as well as putting together a yearly scientific programme for scientists to monitor the effects of climate change.

Ice Warrior is an exciting organisation, offering unique wildlife expedition in the Arctic to see and experience first-hand and up close the amazing landscape and natural diversity of remote, seldom visited regions. Jim McNeil  has over 25 years of experience in High Arctic exploration. Under his guidance, you will be equipped, trained and led through breath taking scenery inhabited by Arctic foxes, Peary caribous, snowy owls, red throated loons, and of course, if you are lucky, the magnificent polar bear. Each expedition requires a minimum of six participants up to a maximum of twelve. These trips go far beyond the bounds of tourism, taking you to places that few people will ever visit, for a life-changing journey through the land of the largest land mammal.

Why not sign up on behalf of Hauser Bears and become part of direct action to preserve and protect this magnificent bear? Your trip will form part of the long running survey run by ice warrior, on behalf of the Norwegian Polar Institute into polar bear numbers.

To participate on behalf of Hauser Bears, we ask that you raise a minimum of £1000 for the charity, through Virgin Money Giving.
