This is rich, Southern Ontario usually doesn't give two shits about Northern Ontario... but let them know the polar bears are in "trouble" and they are all over it.

I thought I read a report that claimed the polar bears have a stronger population than they did 20 years ago. Does anyone have a link?

$1:
The Minister of Natural Resources Donna Cansfield said melting ice and low survival rates are some of the reasons why the population has been waning over the past several years.

Cansfield acknowledged the polar bear decline is a global issue caused, in part, by climate change.


How clueless can they get?

No Ice?

Can't get their seals because of no or thin ice?

Guess what they do?

They Adapt and move South and into our towns/villages and start eating our garbage and puppies like what has already been doing for quite a while now.

Believe it or not, but many animals know how to adapt like we do.

Just because there is little or no ice, doesn't mean they're suddenly going to all die.

The Polar bear has been around for about 300,000 years now... it has adapted and evolved as it needed to for its environment.... it will continue to adapt.

If it doesn't.... then like all other animals species before it.... it'll die.

That's nature and our own involvement is also a part of Nature. Either creatures around the world adapt and evolve or they die off to leave room for new species to take their place.

Humans forever trying to prolong the extinction of various animals and trying to keep the Earth frozen in time without no change at all to keep everything alive is an impossibility.

Everything changes with or without our involvement.

If we existed with our current knowledge and technology back in the dinosaur or ice ages, would we be doing the same thing with T-Rex, Saber Tooth Tiger or the Mammoth?

Nothing is supposed to last forever, including us. We can reduce our effects and try to protect things, but in the long run, things will either change/adapt/evolve or die off..... and then new things come along to take their place.

Added:

The thing I don't get is that if we do nothing and a species starts to die off, then it's our own fault for not acting..... and if we get involved and they still die off, it's still apparently our fault, or if we get involved and try and save a paticular species, we end up affecting several other species which we have to get involved with, thus still all our fault..... so damned if we do and damned if we don't.

Apparently anything and everything that happens to our world is all our fault for either acting or not acting, no matter what.
