That Population is estimated to go down by 30-50% in the next 50 years due to loss of land for them to live on. https://www.flickr.com/photos/cmichel67/19627287991 ]]> 2019-05-21 21:01:25 UTC https://padlet.com/22kessingerj/xtxt6ms06xkr/wish/362323948 22kessingerj https://padlet.com/22kessingerj/xtxt6ms06xkr/wish/362335004 https://pixabay.com/photos/polar-bear-head-snow-lying-animal-2112248/]]> 2019-05-21 21:58:35 UTC https://padlet.com/22kessingerj/xtxt6ms06xkr/wish/362335004 22kessingerj https://padlet.com/22kessingerj/xtxt6ms06xkr/wish/362346275 Polar Bear's populations are decreasing, because their homes and hunting grounds are melting away, due to climate change.

Many people don't know the polar bear population is going extinct, nor do they know the extent at which their population is declining.

They only have a 2% success rate when hunting its role in the ecosystem is population control for seals, as they have no other predators.
