Cool down by watching photographer Paul Nicklen’s Ted Talk “Animal Tales from Icy Wonderlands.” It’s funny, beautiful and educational.
On a project for National Geographic, Nicklen feared for his job after failing to even see an animal that he had promised to photograph. Then something magical happened. And that is just the beginning of the breathtaking 17 minute talk.

According to its website, “TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world.
“Our Mission: Spread ideas”
“TED is a global community, welcoming people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world. We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world. On TED.com, we’re building a clearinghouse of free knowledge from the world’s most inspired thinkers — and a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other, both online and at TED and TEDx events around the world, all year long.”
