Polar Bears Roam Arctic Ice On Borrowed Time (847 words) |
 | A mother polar bear and her two young cubs are currently stranded on Bjoernoeya ("Bear Island" in Norwegian) in the Svalbard archipelago after being caught off guard by a rapid ice melt this spring. |
| Polar bears generally catch baby seals curled up inside cavities in the ice by throwing their approximately 300 kilos (about 660 pounds) against the ice and breaking it. |
| The polar bears will not be able to ride that gravy train for long however, she said, warning that these kings of the ice could soon be delegated to museum wings dedicated to extinct species. |
