Please STOP the Hunting of Polar Bears and the Fur Trade. The pelts come from Canada, under the guise of Sustenance Hunting. Fur Trade is booming. The demand driving two other Countries,Russia and China. In Russia himself is shooting of Polar Bears prohibited since 1956! The Polar Bears are in Danger of Extinction. The Pack Ice melts and the Habitat of Polar Bears is shrinking. The Science predicts a Population decrease of 70% over the next 40 Years. Nevertheless be each Year hundreds of these endangered Animals alone shot as Trophies. European Tour Operators sell a Polar Bear Hunting-shooting for around 40 000 euros.

The Polar Bears ,their Habitat shrinks by Global Warming. By the additional Hunting for their Pelts they are in Danger of Extinction. There are only 20,000 left!  

The argument with the Inuit is just a  bullshit pretext. The Inuit have their own demand for meat that has never threatened the survival of polar bears.
Behind this legal loophole is represented the whole fur trade and trophy industry, with semi-automatic weapons shooting all animals in their sights. This involves a lot of money. The Canadian Government does nothing about it.

Now in the Arctic Circle, hundreds and thousands of hunters come to hunt for polar bears for $35,000 a head, and they come from all over the world- Mexico, Europe, the U.S, and even Canada's "Inuit" communities, many of whom hunt their quotas and legally sell them onto outsiders wiling to part with cash. For some countries, they allow hunters to take polar bear hides back, as long as they have the paperwork. According to the Independent, last year the U.S. banned the importation of polar bear hides but most countries, including Britain, place no restrictions on the skins.

President Obama has proposed,with Russian Support, a Ban on the Trade in Polar Bears, but another Polar Bear Range State, Canada, is adamantly opposed to it. _______________________________________________________________________________

The Canadian government is ruthless in supporting the murder of wildlife for the profiteering hunters who sell the pelts. The world community has been signing petitions for years, against the annual and very cruel seal hunts. So now it's polar bears too... They'd be better off tossing a few bucks at these hunters, and leaving wildlife to live in their natural states, and in peace.

Dian, if you are a Canadian, then you should stay calm and take it easy . it is a debate for the positive and good causes . life is a fundamental right for both animals and humans . cruelity shouldnt be a granted right to people whatever thier nationality to justify killing animals .
what is going in in the world is disgusting and byond imagination .

Antoine Bunel

You make good points Michael, thanks for your kind and positive intervention. I hope more people can debate peacefully and positively to help each other and help protect our planet.

PLEASE SAVE AND HELP POLAR BEARS!

I do not know if and when it ends, but I can say this: I will sign petitions like this one and fight for the rights of every living being until my last day comes or if I will be live to see it until the world is like the world should be: a place where every animals and men and women from all nations, races and religions can live in peace, healthy and wealthy, side by side.

Elaine Daprano

Well said, Christian, I will stand with you, ready to sign after you.

go to hell bear slayers!

How can it be a privilege to kill any animal,let alone those on this danger list.

They are just a bunch of cowards who like to show off to their friends how brave they think they are.

Send them off to war,if they are so brave,no doubt it would be a different story then,as they could become the targets.

I am patient!

And as for Japenese whaling near AUSTRALIA chuck them in the water and harpoon them, whales are so huge, innoncent and we all love them I am sure, STOP JAPENESE SLAUGHTER OF OUR WORLDS WHALES in Australian/Antartic Waters.

These magnificent animals should not die out, and told the people to protect them anyway.. save the polar bear!

Ningún ser humano puede decidir el destino de otro animal... y mucho menos para matarlo. Proteger la vida como si fuera a ser nuestra propia descendencia... animales nunca complot para matar a los niños humanos! Por favor, únase, firmar y compartir! Gracias!

I understand that we are the dominate species on earth and what we had to do to survive and keep warm. Now in all our intelligence and wisdom some of us may choose to kill for meat but no longer do we have a need to KILL to keep warm. Hunting is a joke because there is no fairness involved. Unless the so called hunter puts on some home made claws and teeth then see how truly is the King of the jungle.

I understand that we are the dominate species on earth and what we had to do to survive and keep warm. Now in all our intelligence and wisdom some of us may choose to kill for meat but no longer do we have a need to KILL to keep warm. Hunting is a joke because there is no fairness involved. Unless the so called hunter puts on some home made claws and teeth then see how truly is the King of the jungle. There's no skill involved in killing a Polar bear with a rifle or something that the so called hunter is so far away that the bear can't get a piece of him/her. That's skill? As I commented on a similar topic, one day like a scene from one of those futuristic movies, all you see is a darkened sky, automated smog making machines and no wildlife at all, no birds, nothing! It is very possible that could be our fate as early as next year. It doesn't take much to destroy everything. We've been doing a bang up job so far...

Couldn't agree more...but are the Chinese Christians - they skin cats alive for the fur and meat trade and keep animals in factory conditions for their medicines.

Elaine Daprano

You think we are the dominant species because we were told so. I no longer believe it.
