  • Polar Bear (Ursa maritimus) on sea ice off the sub-arctic coast of Hudson Bay, Churchill, Manitoba, Canada. Bears come to the coast of Hudson Bay in Fall waiting for the ice to freeze, and looking for a careless seal or dead whale to wash up. Global warming has shortened their winter so they are increasingly anxious as they wait for winter. While they wait, they engage in frequent wrestling matches to determine a mating hierarchy for the breeding season in March and April, and regularly check on the ice to see if it will carry them out to sea.

  • WWF says polar bears (Ursus maritimus) are set to become one of the most notable casualties of global warming unless drastic action is taken. The impact of climate change is increasingly felt in polar regions, where summer sea ice is expected to decrease by 50?00 per cent over the next 50?00 years. Polar bears are predicted to suffer more than a 30 per cent population decline in the next 45 years.
