where’s the picture of Gobbels?
Humans need 2 cal/day?
Ping.
Hey, i’m savin’ money here. ;-)
2,000, makes sense.
12,000,000 /day means great warmth. You could heat your house with a PB in the basement.
Save the Seals; Buy an SUV.
Support Global Warming Now!
Ah, the old Polar Bear trick.
Not working, libs.
Go back to school.
Try science.
Not MSM science.
Not Democrat science.
But some stuff with numbers in it.
Oh, not University of East Anglia numbers. (They’ve been proven to cheat)
Not NASA numbers. (They alter data AFTER it’s been collected, but forgot to destroy the original numbers.)
I am sure they studied them in the Summer when their fat layer is reducing as it is not as needed.
Yeah, their math is screwy.
12,000 kCals is about twenty pounds of meat (steak is 650 cals per pound.) The author misses the convention of dietetic kilocalories just being called calories, otherwise the poor bears would need to eat about 20 thousand pounds of steak a day.

Yes. This thread will not be complete without the official photograph.
In the spring, during their prime hunting season, polar bears need an insanely large amount of food to stay healthy over 12,000 kilocalories a day, or roughly 6,000 times what humans need...

12,000 kilocalories is 12,000 * 1,000 = 12,000,000 calories. That is one very hungry bear.
Thanks, I might be back on path on the units situation.
The 1 calorie that you see on a food label is actually a kilocalorie. 1 calorie raises 1 gram of water by one degree celcius.
Micheal Phelps when in training eats 12,000 calories a day and he has a lot less size than a polar bear.
It’d be better than having a Mr. Fusion...
***If the eco wankers REALLY cared, they’d offer themselves up to save these poor creatures***
I agree. I remember the old movie THE SAVAGE INNOCENTS in which the old Eskimo woman is left behind on the ice to become polar bear food and she is happy as she knows her son will later kill the bear and use it to feed his family.
There should be an excess of seals since clubbing seals went out of style.
6,000 x is a Yugely big deal.
I think it would take TWO polar bears to match the energy put out by a 80k BTU furnace.
