Love seeing geography content on Svalbard. If interested, Cecilia Blomdahl channel does a vlog of life on Svalbard with her companion and dog.

It is extraordinary how many large lifeforms can survive in such remote desolate locations.

For reasons that elude me, my sister has expressed interest in visiting Svalbard, and this is a woman who is more cold-sensitive than almost anyone I've met. Plus, while none of us are particularly used to "roughing it" (for lack of a better term), she can't even sleep in the same room as a moth. Danger aside, I'd be curious how she'd react to an aggressive polar bear.

A bit of a nitpick but there's a permanently inhabited Canadian military base (Alert) on Ellesmere Island that is a little further north.
