The polar bear or the ice bear are the world's largest land predators.  They can be found in the Arctic, the U.S. (Alaska), Canada, Russia, Denmark (Greenland), and Norway.

These countries either banned hunting or made rules for how many polar bears could be hunted within its own boundaries. These rules help keep the polar bear populations stable. Today, 20,000 to 40,000 polar bears roam the Arctic.

This information helps people understand how endangered the polar bear is how would you feel if the human race was endangered.

There are three main dangers to the polar bear

  1. Hunting is a big issue they kill the polar bears so they can make money while knowing that they have just taken an animals life and that gilt should stay with them forever.
  2. Global warming is a huge danger to polar bears humans use to many cars buses and we have to many factory’s which make very hot smoke and that makes all the ice melts.
  3. Habitat loss happens all the time and it’s becoming a regular thing for the polar bear but that doesn’t mean it’s a good thing it just means it’s happening more and they are getting use to losing family members.

Honestly what does the Polar Bear need more than anything else ……” Ice”!!! What can Defenders of Wildlife do about that?
