Why People in the Arctic Circle Need a Cage Outside Their Door

A guy who works in the Arctic Circle posted a video of himself walking through a polar bear cage connected to his front door.  It prevents bears from attacking when he goes outside, and he can scan the area to make sure none are stalking him.

It may remind you of a clip that went viral last week.

A woman who lives close to the North Pole posted a video showing all the prep she has to go through just to walk her dog when it’s dark outside.

She starts with thermal underwear, then puts on expedition pants, a down jacket, a face scarf, and a headlamp, which she calls a Teletubby headlight.  The dog has to wear blankets and a high-visible vest with lights so she can always see it.

And because there are polar bears, she has to bring a rifle outside “at all times.”  By the way, her dog is a Finnish Lapphund.  They have super thick fur and are made for cold, harsh winters.
