Polar bears in Norway increasing in numbers

“Despite rapidly shrinking sea-ice – the bear’s summer hunting ground – the ban on hunting bears and their prey may be causing their number to increase.”

This is fantastic news! I LOVE Polar Bears! I think everyone has seen the footage of the Polar Bear that tried to swim for food and drowned because the ice melting has caused its hunting ground to be farther and farther out from its icy home and the bear was too tired to swim all the way back. I cried watching that, I know I am not alone there.. Polar bears shouldn’t drowned.. I am glad to hear they are adapting and possibly growing in numbers!! There are some incredible pictures from this series.
