Polar Bears

Polar bears are the largest canivour on land and also the largest of all bears. The male polar bears can weigh up to 771 kilograms and the female polar bears can weigh up to 272 kilograms! The males can grow to three meters which is the height of a one-story building! Polar bears are becoming extinct due to human poaching and global warming. In order to prevent extinction of the Polar bears, the authorities need to set up preventive measures like preventing poachers from being able to sell the fur in the open market. By educating the public, we hope that Polar bears can be saved!
