Support Proposal to List Polar Bears As "Threatened"
Target: U.S. Fish and WildlifeSponsored by: Defenders of Wildlife
Send in your public comment to support listing polar bears as a "Threatened" species!
Polar bears really need our help: according to government studies in recent months, more and more are starving to death, and more and more of their babies are dying before reaching adulthood. In fact, of polar bears studied between 1990 and last spring, only 25 cubs per 100 females survived. That's less than half the survival rate of polar bear cubs studied from 1967 to 1989!
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is requesting public comments regarding the listing of polar bears as a "Threatened" species. In just 5 minutes, you can send in your public comment - just sign this petition.

Thanks to global warming, the ice that was once the link from the polar bear den to the necessary nourishment, has become a coffin for starving polar bears. If mom or dad cannot bring their cubs food, then the cubs die as well. This destruction of beauty is due to the demand for fossil fuels. This is our f*@k up so we have to clean it up. PLEASE HELP THE VICTIMIZED ANIMALS THAT CANNOT HELP THEMSELVES.

Bears are treated horribly, all around the world. It's shameful.

PLEASE list the polar bear!!! Not only is their land being threatened by global warming, but the proposed oil and gas industry in their territory will severely damage polar bear populations by exposing them and their food supplied to all kinds of pollutants, some of which can severely inhibit reproduction and thus contribute to further decline!!! 6 billion+ people, 22,000 polar bears....how sad. We've caused this, now can't we do our part to protect them??

Polar bears are slipping away. We may be able to save their existence if we stop hunting them and destroying their lands. They have nothing close to what we have in life. Let them live. They were meant to. Theres no harm in that.Animals should never be killed because there are too many. If this should be true, shouldnt people be killed to? We are more than overpopulated. No one should die. We each have our place on this earth. So do the animals. Each and every one.
