My brothers cat recently had to be put down because it had cancer and it was as thin like this bear. But I guess it wasn’t because of the cancer, it must have been global warming making my brother a mean guy who purposely starved him.

Obviously, no photographers were around to snap images of emaciated dinosaurs when their “easy prey” ran out and wily mammals were able to evade their clumsy hunting! As to “Anthropogenic Global Warming”..., how did we humans turn up the sun???

You have to be a little bit careful about drawing conclusions immediately.

- Could be AIDS.
- Could be Crystal Meth.
- Could be Ursine Anorexia.
- Could be liposuction.
- Could be a depleted food supply resulting from bear overpopulation brought on by environmental do-gooders.
- Could just be that the prey animals are "evolving" better defense and escape mechanisms. Just ask any Darwinist.

I have a different theory .. I think it may be a “mother” bear who has been spending the winter months nursing twins or triplets.

That action alone could have robbed her of all her body fat which she had stored up in order to be able to feed her brood until spring would allow her to hunt and fish again.

It would be interesting to know how far away this guy was when he took the photo. If he was close enough to be seen, why didn’t the starving bear attack him?

Take away food stamps and welfare and millions of people not working (that could) would look like this.

I thought the polar bear population was actually increasing.

That’s how liberals think.

Rewire the entire world because a polar bear is dying.

There is another explanation. A very rich environment in which old bears suffer no predation would produce an unusually high population of aging bears. As with humans, many weak and feeble seniors survive today who would have died 50 years ago.
See? It means what you want it to mean.

A friend recently asked a hog farmer he was doing a project for “What causes a few of your pigs to die?’

The reply was “If you have a town of 12,000 people, some of them just get sick and die.”

OH NO! A starving polar bear! Let’s spend another $trillion to fight “global warming” and give up to more government control.

Because if only ONE polar bear is saved...

Why hasn’t anyone stated the obvious? Look at the picture. That polar bear IS on the sea ice.

‘In all my years of growing up in the Arctic and later, working as a biologist, I have never found a dead polar bear,’ he said.

They must live forever.

More proof that National Geographic photographers and biologists are scaring away the seals that polar bears feed on.

The bear is likely either a juvenile separated from Mom too soon or really old. They don’t make it.

Starvation is nature’s primary way of dealing with species that are OVERPOPULATED.
