Protect Polar Bears from Extinction!
Target: U.S. Fish and Wildlife ServiceSponsored by: Defenders of Wildlife
In as few as 50 years, America's polar bears could be gone.
New research by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) predicts dramatic declines in polar bear populations as global warming melts the Arctic sea ice these bears depend on for survival. It has never been so urgent to reduce global warming emissions and protect polar bears from extinction.
In light of these findings, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has reopened a brief, two week comment period on its January 2007 proposal to list polar bears as "threatened" under the Endangered Species Act.
No more delays or excuses - it's time to protect polar bears and their melting homes. Sign our petition to submit your official public comment urging the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to protect polar bears from extinction!
UPDATE: The comment period has just been extended to October 22nd - please sign and spread the word today!

Polar bears are being killed every day by a thing we all know as global warming and alot of us dont even care of what we r actually dong to these poor creatures which is taking their life away when they have done nothing wrong instead we all waste water, cut down trees, kill other animals, dont recycle so that makes us use more unnecessary stuff like plastic! we need to save the polar BEARS because its not just their life we r hurting it will soon be ours!

As the dominant species on this earth, we should feel obligated to help those who can not help themselves. Polar bears are losing their habitat due to our irresposible life styles of wasting gas, wasting resources and polluting the earth. The very least we can do is implement guidelines/laws that help these poor animals that can't do it themselves.

Polar bears havent harmed anyone. These are by far my most favorite animals in the world. they should not be killed for fun purposes. It's like someone wanting to hunt YOU for fun. You imagine being in front of the gun and then to be killed just for the fun of it.

I am 9 years old and when I grow up and have children, I want to be able to take them somewhere to see a polar bear. I really don't like it when polar bears die.If global warming keeps on going, all the ice for the polar bears will melt and all the polar bears will die. It's so sad!!!!!!!

Why i think polar bears should be listed as threatend is because the climate is changing and the ice is getting thinner and bears are drowning everyday. this is why i think they should be listed as threatend.
# 43,856:
Please save polar bears from extinction. They are rare, innocent, cute and unique. You have to help us keep them alive. Save those poor polar bears!
