It’s probably the fault of climate alarmists James Cameron and Al Gore, who took unnecessary fossil fueled flights to Latin America. Anyhow, there’s a new study out
More and more brown bears are embracing the single life — at least that’s according to an extensive, decades-long study of the animals in Alaska’s Kodiak wilderness. Researchers have observed a dramatic change in the bears’ relationship statuses in recent years, warning that shifts in seasonal patterns may be behind this new-found unwillingness to settle down and give their parents some darn grandcubs already.
Biologist Bill Leacock of the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge recently presented the findings from the longest-running bear survey of its kind, and it would appear that traditional couplings are falling out of fashion in the world of brown bear relationships. “So, we’re seeing a lot less family groups,” he said. “Whether this is a long-term trend or not, we don’t know yet.”
Obviously, it’s all globull warming
Climate change has already been linked to anomalies in seasonal changes, which, in turn, have had recorded impact on plant, bird, and insect species throughout the world. For some animals, like bears, shifts in seasonal triggers could throw off the balance our their hibernation patterns and ultimately their mating habits — meaning more bears stay single and less cubs are born.
Ah, but, is it globull warming, or something else?
Leacock notes that changes in seasonal patterns, namely the late arrival of Spring, may be contributing to the shift in bear behavior — but further study may be required to better assess the trend.
See, it’s all about greenhouse gases making the world warmer and …….. wait, what? The late arrival of Spring? Doesn’t that mean that the Alaskan winter is lasting longer than it used to, ie, frickin’ cold?
Reducing our CO2 output by 40 percent world wide will reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere by 3 PPM by the year 2100.
So now what Alarmists??
I hope most of you realize that the world is headed for world wide anarchy and very soon.
Food shortages. Oil Shortages. Commie economies as people around the world demand they be GIVEN…that which does not exist for them.
In other words….too many people……..not enough stuff.
I hope your stocking up folks….Because in the next 3-5 years IF…IF we survive the Great Astronomical Alignment of December 2011…..We are going to succumb to world wide Anarchy led into such by the United States…when the commies/unions here realize their is no money left.
They will insist the rich are hiding it from them and embark upon typical Left wing destruction of everything in sight to make their point….only this time the right might be there with them because all that money we claim we got………..GONE.
In light of the current world array of crap hitting the fan, and our president’s refusal to respond like a real man, if I was left feeling any sense of safety at all- after reading Doomed’s words-it’s gone. I am going to finally order my survival seeds…
And those poor gay bears, perhaps Bawney will go keep them company…
Excellent points, Doomed. Of course, with the Left, it is all about intentions, not outcomes, and their intention with globull warming is control. They aren’t really think that what they seek to control will be destroyed by their efforts.
It’s funny how the warmists are pushing “food security” lately, Trish, yet, by their own efforts, they have made food even less secure.
True Teach, and their end game is quite a conundrum; it seems they always want to have things both ways!
Wait…. Grizzlies are not a coupling species to begin with!!! The males and females hook up for a bit, then the males leave to spend the rest of the time on their own.
There is no coupling. In fact, males often-times predate upon the young of their species if found out and about. They are very very territorial.
This is such a stupid article. There are no family-groups.
The only way to write this up would be to SHOW that there are reduced matings. And, thus, this leads to a PROVEN reduction in the grizzly population.
Yet, last I heard, the population is growing by leaps and bounds.
The poster displays the typical wingnut mentality of IGNORING rising average temperatures, IGNORING melting glaciers on most mountains around the world, and IGNORING melting Arctic ice packs. Instead, he chooses to focus on the anomaly of a particular late spring, as if that disproves the overall TREND toward warming. Such is willful ignorance. The only “bull” here is mindless denial of reality.
Hi Jim C. Welcome from planet Luna(tic). Should you wish to stay on earth, we only ask that you observe our customs and physics. If you continue your inability to observe our dimensional reality, please be welcome to return to your home planet of Luna(tic).
[…] Globull Warming Makes Alaskan Brown Bears Bachelors It’s probably the fault of climate alarmists James Cameron and Al Gore, who took unnecessary fossil fueled flights to Latin America. […]
Capt’n- Jim C of Luna(tic) thinks you are our leader!!!!!! We should be so lucky.
As for melting glaciers, what the heck does that have to do with the bears anyway? Glaciers melt and refreeze/reform all the time, and bears, as well as most of nature, know how to alter their lifestyles to adapt to changing landscapes. End of story.
These bears that are possibly not “coupling” have some other serious issues to deal with, and require a therapist not a globull warming expert…
hahahahahah.. Trish. So, do bears in therapy use therapy bears too?
Not sure- maybe they use cabbage patch dolls!!!!!!!
Thought those tools have been determined to be racist.
(When those things came out, I thought they were the freakiest scariest things around – yet everyone wanted them for some reason. … Talk about needing psychiatric help!!)
They sure were freaky…though a couple of them made it into my house…later on when the kids were older, they used them (and other stuffed animals etc) to create a haunted house in the basement. I came across a couple when the kids were grown, that had red nail polish on them, insinuating fake blood. Was pretty nightmarish!
Ya know, I was surprised this Christmas to see that they still sell them!!!!
eeewwwwohh oh oh oh oh (shudddddder)
Hey, I got an idea? Why don’t we bomb libya with cabbage patch dolls. That’ll scare everyone away. They may call us SATAN again for doing so, but… they won’t be able to come out in to the streets and fight. Not as long as those dolls are there staring at them. Like that. With those eyes.
(shudddder)
If only I still had the ones from my basement, that would clinch it!
