Sight a hungry polar bear far from its natural habitat in Russia

A hungry and visibly exhausted polar bear was captured outside the industrial city of Norilsk, in the area of ​​the Russian Arctic circle, when the animal was looking for food in the rubbish, more than 800 kilometers from its traditional habitat, reported Tuesday the local authorities. The images circulated quickly through Russian social networks, where they point out that the bear was first seen on Sunday night in the Talmaj industrial zone, northeast of Norilsk. For this Wednesday, the arrival in the city of a team of specialists is scheduled to inspect the animal and decide on its future. The incursions of polar bears that look for food are more and more frequent in the north of Russia, as their habitat and their feeding deteriorate as a result of climate change, global warming and melting. In Russia, polar bears are recognized as an endangered species and their hunting is prohibited.
