There are more polar bears than ever now. mike http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/c...-warmists.html More polar bears on land maybe. Washington, DC (Vocus) December 8, 2010 The polar bears of Western Hudson Bay went without eating this year for approximately 3 weeks longer than usual. According to the National Wildlife Federation, the combined early summer break-up of sea ice and delayed winter freeze-up foreshadows what is likely to be a fast-approaching and grim future for these polar bears. “These bears are spending longer periods off the ice, their body mass and reproductive rates have been steadily declining, and their numbers are dropping,” said Sterling Miller, senior biologist with the National Wildlife Federation. For nearly 5 months, Western Hudson Bay’s polar bears have had little to nothing to eat, relying on their dwindling fat stores for survival. In the 1970s, this period of fasting averaged about 120 days, after which they were able to return to the sea ice to hunt for seals, their primary food source. The fasting period for radio-marked bears this year was 140 days. Scientists project that if sea ice continues to decline at the current pace as a result of a warming climate, years like this one will become more common. For the bears of Western Hudson Bay, which exist at the southern most range of the species, consecutive years of early ice breakup and longer fasting periods – such as this year – will lead to a sharp decline in bear numbers. “I recently returned from Churchill, Manitoba where I saw with my own eyes how climate change is transforming the region for polar bears,” said Dr. Miller. “At a time when they normally are out hunting for seals on the frozen ice during mid-November, they were all still on shore looking forlornly at open water and waiting with increasing desperation for the ice to form up.” Unlike other populations of polar bears further north, the bears around Churchill spend part of the year on land because the ice on Hudson Bay completely melts during the summer. During this time, these polar bears are largely food deprived. The more time they must spend on land, the longer they go without eating. Once the ice forms up, the bears return to the ice to hunt and feed on seals. In a year like 2010, however, when the ice broke up exceptionally early in the summer and formed up exceptionally late, it is likely that some bears, especially the young ones, will die even after they make it back out on the ice because their condition will be too poor to recover. According to Dr. Andrew Derocher, Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Alberta and a Scientific Advisor to Polar Bears International, a leader in the conservation of polar bears, the first radio-marked bear came off the ice on June 25 this year, meaning that some bears have been off for 163 days. “The Western Hudson Bay polar bears are experiencing two difficult situations in 2010: they were forced ashore 2-3 weeks earlier than what used to be considered normal,” said Derocher. “And they’ve also had to wait an extended period of time for the winter freeze up – which is also several weeks later than in the past.” http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/p...s,1576553.html |
