"What is known is that Polar Bear publation ans been increasing and polar bears eat the walrus"

Hi,

Just so you know, polar bears main diet is seal, not walrus. It is a RARE event that a polar bear would attack a Walrus. Yes, it was shown on Planet Earth, but that is a very rare event with a desperately hungry bear.

Yep, they don't know if the population is increasing decreasing or staying the same. NO SCIECE!

What is known is that Polar Bear publation ans been increasing and polar bears eat the walrus.

"In the 1950s the polar bear population up north was estimated at 5,000. Today it's 20- to 25,000, a number that has either held steady over the last 20 years or has risen slightly. In Canada, the manager of wildlife resources for the Nunavut territory of Canada has found that the population there has increased by 25 percent."
