Polar bears. Many think of polar bears living in Antarctica as if they are living in a winter wonderland. Sadly this is not the case. Polar bears everywhere are on a daily struggle to survive. They have a shortage of ice time to hunt and fatten up for the winter. Because of the shortened ice time due to global warming polar bears are under more stress‚ starving‚ and dying. They are struggling over something they cannot control. Polar bears living more south‚ for example in the Hudson Bay region‚

ecologists. Severe declines in polar bear populations are more noticeable as periods of sea ice cover are steadily declining. A decrease in sea ice is leading to nutritional stress in polar bears due to shorter periods available in prime hunting grounds. As a necessity to the polar bear’s niche a loss of sea ice has harmful implications to polar bear populations. Not only are hunting grounds being lost but industrialization and human habitation are decreasing the size of the polar bear’s natural habitat

Cap and Trade: The Cap and Trade idea is defined as‚ “a regulatory system that is meant to reduce certain kinds of emissions and pollution and to provide companies with a profit incentive to reduce their pollution levels faster than their peers.” I simpler terms this means that the government rewards businesses that lower pollution. They government will set a limit or “cap” on the maximum amount of a certain emission that is permitted to be produced in a business. Then companies are allowed

In the articles "The Anglerfish Ambush Predator of the Deep"‚ by Larry Brown and "Polar Bear"‚ by Shandra Brady I learned how anglerfish and polar bears adapt to their enviornments. Anglerfish live deep in the sea. Polar bears live in the icey cold artic. These are both hard places to adjust to. Anglerfish have fang-like teeth that are angeled inward for efficent prey grabbing. Female anglerfish have a spine that resembles a fisshing pole sticking out of their back called an "illicium" and at the

They may never look beyond the beauty to see the animal has progressed through natural selection to become a creature that endures and thrives in the frigid temperatures and prolific ice. The polar bear has adapted in various ways such as temperature regulation‚ hunting skills‚ movement in water and on ice. The bears white coat makes hunting

more animals originate from a common genetic base. To prove divergent evolution in animals‚ the Ursus Maritimus or polar bear is an example. Divergent evolution is when similar animals branch off becoming dissimilar as time goes. Divergent evolution occurred 125‚000 years ago when brown bears were isolated from their ancestors. This movement got them stranded and trapped by glacial ice and happened because of geographic isolation which is being separated by natural surroundings.(See figure 2) When

that the sea ice in the Arctic would ever cease to exist‚ today the trends in melting sea ice are conclusive‚ and the leading cause of polar bears being at risk. In the past thirty years‚ mean world surface temperatures have increased 0.2°C per decade. However‚ in some parts of the Arctic‚ temperatures have increased ten times the rate (Hansen et al‚ 2006). Since the late 1970s there have been major reductions in summer sea ice extent‚ decreases in the extent and age of multiyear ice and thickness
