A polar bear attacked a German crew member of the cruise ship "Bremen" on Spitsbergen. The animal had injured the polar bear guard on his head, said Hapag-Lloyd Cruises organizer. The man is accessible and saves the mortal danger. "But he remains for observation at the Tromsø hospital," said organization spokeswoman Negar Etminan. Other guard dogs polar bears fired on the animal "for self-defense reasons," as it says
According to Hapag-Lloyd Cruises, l & rsquo; Man had landed Saturday with other guards – but without tourists. Earlier, a spokesman for the Northern Norway Emergency Services said that the attack had occurred when a group of tourists landed in a small boat on an island. Spitsbergen is an archipelago belonging to Norway.
Ole Jakob Malmo of the Svalbard Police said that a helicopter had transported the injured person to Longyearbyen, the capital of the Arctic Archipelago. Saturday night, he was taken to the Tromsø hospital, reported spokesman Etminan. "Other crew members and pbadengers are not affected by the incident."
Authorities regularly warn polar bears
Police Officer Malmo said the incident was ongoing. The shot bear must be autopsied at Longyearbyen. Authorities in the region regularly warn of the danger posed by polar bears. In 2015, a polar bear wounded a Czech who wanted to observe a total eclipse. The last deadly attack of a polar bear occurred in 2011, when a British student was killed.
