Polar bears are increasingly becoming threatened due to a myriad of issues consisting of industry projects, ice in their natural environment melting, as well as human interaction. By a long way the largest root cause is actually the adjustment in the natural world of the polar bear. Numerous life-threatening situations are produced for these cool weather bears when the ice melts. World-wide warming that is actually associated to industrialization and ventures such as driving a car, burning coal, and additional human ventures creates the ice melting.
The Bear Essential
Polar bears are actually a huge varieties that make their homes on the frozen Arctic ocean. The bears will certainly waste the majority of their lives on the ice. Males can increase up to ten feet in span and weigh in at over 1,400 pounds! The bears are actually carnivores, suggesting they consume the meat of more Arctic pets. At current there are actually estimated to be actually only less than 50 thousands polar bears left in the wild. They are actually on the Endangered Species Listing.
That Is Helping, as well as Exactly how
Major contributors to the fight to conserve the Arctic Polar Bear feature the Coca-Cola Company as well as the World Wildlife Fund. All together these businesses are raising hard earned cash to groundwork what is inducing world-wide temperature change as well as performing with governmental companies to oversee greenhouse gasoline emissions. More principal projects include efforts to defend against unfavorable mortal connections including poaching as well as remarkable travel and leisure as well as shielding crucial habitat areas such as birthing dens.

animal endangered of extinction for a biology paper?!? Please Help
? I have to write a paper on an animal that is becoming extinct for my biology paper. I have to answer the following questions: 1. Name one species that is on the endangered list for extinction. 2. Describe its natural habitat/location. 3. Describe the climate of its natural habitat. 4. How does it survive? 5. Explain why it is becoming extinct. 6. Is anything being done to prevent the organism from becoming extinct? If yes, describe what is being done. I wanted to do Polar Bears, because they are my favorite animal. Is this a good animal to do? Would I be able to find all of this information fairly easy and be able to write a good paper? If not what are some other suggested animals to do the paper on? *Remember, the animal has to be in danger of extinction. I was also thinking Elephants, because I also love elephants 
;;and i know they are in danger due to poachers and stuff. Thanks for the help everyone!!!!!!!

Polar bears were classified as a threatened species in 2008 which means that they are vulnerable to becoming an endangered species later on. So this basically means that they aren’t in any immediate danger of becoming extinct but the threat is definitely there. I think that if you really wanted to do the polar bear it should be fine, but maybe choosing an animal that’s already endangered may be a better choice.

The polar bear is currently listed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. (1) The Asian Elephant is listed as endangered on the IUCN Red List. (2) The list of endangered species includes: * Cuban crocodile: Currently restricted to two small areas of Cuba. * Grenada dove: The national bird of Grenada is threatened by habitat loss. * Florida bonneted bat: Thought to be extinct in 2002; a small colony has since been discovered. * Green-eyed frog: Only a few hundred of these small amphibians are left. * Hirola: Also called Hunter?s hartebeest; the hirola is a highly threatened African antelope. * Ploughshare tortoise: With only 400 left, the ploughshare tortoise is threatened by the illegal pet trade. * Island gray fox: Living on the California Channel Islands, this is the smallest fox in the United States. * Sumatran orangutan: This population has declined 80 percent during the past 75 years. * Vaquita: This small ocean porpoise is drowning in fishing nets. * White-headed langur: Only 59 of these monkeys remain on a small island off Vietnam. (3) Any species you choose can be researched on the IUCN Red List (http://www.iucnredlist.org).

Libs, wouldn’t seals be happier if we got rid of the Polar Bears? in fact…isn’t the savvy polar bear liken to be the Neo-Con and the stup!d du__b naive seal the Liberal? You guys should be hoping for the polar bear extinction…. I bet you have mixed emotions about this Global Warming cr@p now huh? lol

No. Without polar bears, the seal populations would grow too fast. They will over-consume their resources and then starve to death. I doubt seals would be happy about that. The environment is in delicate balance. That’s why we should be more careful about screwing it up.

Not that you really care about this but we need them all to keep a balanced eco-system. Polar bear kills also feed a number of sea birds and arctic foxes that rely on that. If seals are over populated they will die out and the fish in those waters will be over fished and eventually this will also affect whale populations…

Good answer. Award yourself 10 points for best answer – I can hardly think of a way to improve upon it. But let me add: Well organized cults try to shield their members from opposing viewpoints by controlling information. There is a concerted effort to refuse/exclude journal submissions that disagree or even question the “prevailing” point of view. This story was hailed by Bob as an example of a skeptic’s (Soon’s) “bad” science, but it’s hard to see it as anything less than an effort to simultaneously de-legitimize both a study and a journal. This has become a all too frequent experience. See Benny Peiser’s or McIntyre & McKitrick’s snubbing. The level of organization of this disinformation campaign would make those in the former USSR’s Ministry of Information proud. The IPCC has even created more than a few disgruntled zealots with their tight-fisted control of the “consensus” view.

Cults are usually a minority of some kind. If the “alarmists” as you label them are cultists, they must be the exception. Or else the deniers and skeptics are the cult (since they’re in fact the minority)

Information below was pasted from the website provided , hope it helps! Current Polar Bear Status: As of May 2008 the U.S, lists the polar bear as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. Russia considers the polar bear a species of concern. What?s happening? Today, scientists have concluded that the threat to polar bears is ecological change in the Arctic from global warming. Polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting, breeding, and in some cases, denning. Summer ice loss in the Arctic now equals an area the size of Alaska, Texas, and the state of Washington combined. Polar bears range from Russia to Alaska, from Canada to Greenland, and onto Norway’s Svalbard archipelago?the five polar bear nations. Biologists estimate there are 20,000 to 25,000 bears. About 60% of those live in Canada. At the 2009 meeting of the IUCN Polar Bear Specialist Group, scientists reported that of the 19 subpopulations* of polar bears: 8 are declining 3 are stable 1 is increasing By comparison, in 2005: 5 were declining 5 were stable 2 were increasing *Insufficient data to determine the fate of the other 7 populations

no they wont go extinct and neither will pandas because people think they’re cute and cuddely but over 70 species of animals and insects in the amazon go extinct everyday due to logging

yes polar bears will be screwed, not because of camoflauging (bears have almost no natural predators), but because of change in environment and food sources as far as the icecaps melting, no bears will take over that region because there will be water, no land

They’re already finding polar bears drowning hundreds of miles from the nearest ice, so anything’s possible.

Why some liberals are whining that war in Iraq continues and polar bears are suffering, despite Obama? Like they believed in his pre-election rhetoric. Liberals, your Hussein Obama is only interested in power grab, to slaughter the golden goose of capitalism and divide the carcass between interest groups. My mom and I adore polar bears, but sadly they the bears head toward their extinction. The Russians poisoned the bears in Siberia by their wastes of socialist economy, and now with Obama in charge of Alaskan costs the bears have nowhere to run.
