Have a look on latest image of a sickly, skinny and starving Polar Bear shot by photographer Kerstin Langenberger off the Barents Sea on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard.
As sea ice melts due to climate change, Polar bears can’t rely on their traditional diet rich in fish, seals, and other marine-based food. The bears are turning to terrestrial foods like berries, birds and eggs, but they’re not ashealthy and their survival rate is threatened by this new diet
Polar bears are not the only animals to be affected by the melting sea ice and warming water temperatures.
- Walruses, who usually “haul out” on sea ice, have been spotted gathering on land in Northwest Alaska instead.
- Beluga, Bowhead and killer whales have all begun to change their patterns because of lack of sea ice.
- White-beaked dolphins have been forced to venture further north seeking after sea ice.
