Polar Bears

Tue Jul 8, 2008, 3:43 PM
At the moment and in the recent past Polar Bears have been in the news. Mosly because of what i belive to be tragic killings in iceland.
But have your say i'll include some infomation on polar bears and on these killings. Please comment with your opinion on this issue.

Polar Bears :
There are more than 22 thousand polar bears in the glacial Arctic at the present time The species is at risk of estinction because global warming iis causing huge changes of the arctic including the melting of sea ice.
Polar bears are known to be strong swimmers and recently it was reported that four were found drowned in the Bering Strait between Alaska and Russia. They had apparently swam beyond their range and died after not being able to find suitable pack ice upon which to rest .

Polar bear shootings in iceland:

1.)A polar bear spotted in Skagafjördur, Iceland this week has been shot by police after a farmer in Keldudalur saw the bear walking along a mountain road and called the police

2.) A polar bear that found its way to Iceland on June 17 was supposed to be picked up by a crew from Copenhagen Zoo and taken back to Greenland.
But police sharpshooters killed the bear.

I want everyone reading this to know that these polar bears have swam 300 km before reaching land.

Have your say.

Dammit! People should know that polar bears are endangered and they shouldn't hurt animals! >:[

Why don't you submit this as a news? That way, more people will be informed.

It's so terrible! Polar bears are wonderful creatures and it is so sad that they have been driven to now being endangered. >.<

With the ice caps melting they are running out of places to rest. The poor things have to swim for so long with no rest because there simply isn't any place to rest. >.< It's just so sad.

I can't believe they are killing them like that! O.O I had no idea about that... The poor things. >.< How could they simply kill them! *sigh*

Yes. maybe you should submit this in news. Maybe more people will see it there.

It's great to hear that you are telling others about this shocking issue,
i think that the people who don't care about this don't have a lot of heart.
