A video of a hungry and thin polar bear in Canada’s wilderness has gone popular on the Internet. The video shows the bear is in search of food, walking across land with no snow or ice. It is all skin and bones. The bear is looking for food in waste containers. It is at times too weak to support its own body weight and difficult to stand. Paul Nicklen, the photographer who took the video, said the polar bear’s trouble was a clear sign of the surprising effect of climate change. He said filming the animal made them sad. He explain his team members were “holding their tears and emotions(情感) while recording this dying polar bear”.

Mr. Nicklen is part of the environmental group Sea Legacy. His team was on Canada’s Baffin Island to get a documentary on conservation. He said the bear they filmed was not old and probably died within hours. He said, “This is what hunger looks like. The muscles weaken. No energy. It’s a slow, painful death.” he blamed the bear’s sad trouble on global warming. He said, “As temperatures rise and sea ice melts, polar bears lose the main food of their diets-seals.” Climate change is the biggest threat to the world’s 26,000 polar bears. The video explains that bears are “hungry, and running out of energy” and are “forced to walk into human living places for any food”.
