Earlier: National Geographic Admits 'Starving Polar Bear' Was a Bit of a Fraud.

The truth:

[OttawaFreeper]

What about Algore’s polar bear?

[Bryanw92]

>>While science has established that there is a strong connection between melting sea ice and polar bears dying off

Because polar bears eat ice?

A bit of a fraud?

It’s either a fraud or not.

Otherwise, it’s like being sort of pregnant.

[antidemoncrat]

National Geographic just do what the Democrats do: Apologize and get a reprieve from the lame street media.

“While science has established that there is a strong connection between melting sea ice and polar bears dying off...”

Except for one thing..... IT’S NOT TRUE! Polar bear populations are INCREASING.

[The Pack Knight]

Polar bears have no natural predators, so, like pretty much every other wild apex predator, unless they drown, die from disease, are killed by a human hunter, or are killed by another polar bear, they usually die from starvation when they can no longer effectively hunt prey. Sad as it is to think about, there are no polar bear nursing homes, but that’s the natural order of things.

[faucetman]

Old, sick, polar bear. Rare photo, since other animals should have killed and eaten such a bear by now.

Let’s add “lucky”.

[House Atreides]

Damn....Polar Bears get sick or old and die? Since when? This has never happened before. ;-)

National Geographic embraced the global warming fraud wholehearted and started interjecting Leftist commentary on political issues quite a while ago. It was tragic to someone like me, who had subscribed since the late Sixties (when I was about five) and I credit the old National Geographic for being a major force in my self-education. My knowledge base certainly annoyed my government school teachers.

Unfortunately, the new National Geographic is more likely to turn out Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezes by the thousands.

The bears look like this in summer, completely normal and I’ve read about residents up there who laugh at the phoney scientists who photograph the bears and blame global warming.

[elbook]

National Geographic was once a great publication

Its not any more (for a while)

Soft headed leftism has no place in science.

Meanwhile across the ice floe...

[Deplorable American1776]

The National Geographic Magazine committed fraud...next it will say those topless native pictures were from Penthouse...

[vpintheak]

The first things I thought of when I first saw this was:
1. Is the bear old and dying?
2. Is the bear sick?
3. Where are the rest of the starving and emaciated polar bears?

I tend to attempt to engage my brain every now and then, and would love it if more people would do the same thing.

Next think you know, Nissan will admit that polar bears really didn’t hug Nissan Leaf drivers.
