Climate Change Forcing Polar Bears to Stay on Land
A new study has found that climate change has forced polar bears to spend a lot of time on land. Since the polar bears require drifting sea ice to travel, hunt and mate, less ice means they have to survive on their fat reserves. Researchers add that the change in migration pattern has also affected reproduction of these polar bears.
