Polar Bear Watch: Frightened Out Of Its Skin
POLAR Bear Watch: Anorak’s look at polar bears in the news
A polar bear caused panic in a park filled with children in northern Canada Wednesday before it was shot and killed, reports reaching here said.
The incident happened at Sylvia Grinnell Territorial Parklocated in the suburbs of Iqaluit, capital city of the Nunavat Territory. About 37 kids from a nearby school were having a picnic there, besides other visitors.
Polar bears are endangered:
Conservation officer Johnny Nowdlak skinned the polar bear and doled out the skin and meat to nearby residents. He estimated that it was male, about 10 years old. It appeared to be healthy and was likely looking for food in the park, he said.
Not all that healthy. They’re endangered, don’t yer know…

Maybe Johnny Nowdlak should be shot, skinned and have his bits distributed across the frozen north!
That’d teach him not to do it again.

I thin k they should have found a better way to take care of this. maybe we should start shooting humans who invade their space.

I think Conservation Officer Johnny Nowdlak should have a word with his careers advisor. And also his biology teacher if he only ‘estimated’ the bear was male after he skinned it
