Pictured: A curious polar bear surprised a ship's crew by trying to clamber aboard. Fascinated by the boat, the bear walked away from a walrus carcass he was eating to investigate. But after it attempted to climb on board, the ship's captain sent him on his way by lightly touching him on the nose. Pictures of the curious incident were captured by photographer Franco Banfi at Svalbard, who was on board the vessel in the Norwegian Arctic.
