These animals are considered threatened, and in some regions they are listed as endangered species. Polar bears have experienced habitat pressure as a result of shrinking icecaps, combined with expanding human populations in the Arctic. Some polar bears are starving because they are unable to find food, while others are shot because they are a nuisance for human communities. These unfortunate circumstances have led some biologists to express alarm over the fate of the polar bear, suggesting that the animals could vanish in the wild by the middle of the 21st century. The Center for Biological Diversity has led the charge to save polar bears from extinction. They wrote the 2005 scientific petition calling for the bear’s protection under the Endangered Species Act, and they filed suit twice with their partners to force the administration to take action on that petition. In May 2008, their work paid off when the bear was finally listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. The next year, their work spurred the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to propose the protection for more than 128 million acres of the species’ habitat: the largest critical habitat proposal in Endangered Species Act history. Unfortunately, the polar bear still doesn’t have complete federal protection. When former Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne announced that the polar bear would be listed as threatened, he simultaneously vowed he wouldn’t let the listing affect U.S. climate policy, executing an illegal final “4(d)” rule exempting greenhouse gas emissions and oil development — by far the two leading threats to the bear — from regulation under the Endangered Species Act. They immediately challenged the rule, made final in December 2008, and their suit is ongoing even as they defend the bear’s listing from those who would reverse it, including a trophy-hunting group and the state of Alaska. The polar bear got a new chance at more meaningful protections in March 2009, when Congress gave Interior Secretary Ken Salazar the power to revoke the 4(d) rule with the stroke of a pen. But the day before his deadline to do that, Salazar announced he would turn his back on the polar bear and leave the rule in place, ignoring hundreds of thousands of citizen petitions to save the bear (94,000 from Center supporters) — as well as requests from more than 1,300 scientists, more than 50 prominent legal experts, dozens of lawmakers, and more than 130 conservation organizations. Armed with this support and the center's own drive to save the bear, the Center will continue its fight for the species’ survival.

aw i know right i watched like some animal planet channel the other day showing how polar bears are starving and dieing off its so sad. i think planes should carry tons of fish and drop them off for the polar bears to eat!

polar bears need to have more sex its not our fault they're getting extinct

The same thing that is being done to further the human race as rational and empathetic occupants of this planet.... ....we have the potential.

polar bears depend alot on the clima change.

Nothing at all by humans...but something by nature...

global warming isn't really all that big of a deal. quit listening to al gore, or the people that quote him.
