The polar bear is not listed with a status of endangered now, this may be due in part to the foresight of the five nations that agreed to make the polar bear a priority, and protect them by signing the International Agreement on the Conservation of Polar Bears. They are currently listed as "Threatened" by the US Fish and Wildlife Services, Endangered Species List, and the IUCN Red List, has them listed with a status of "Vulnerable" and the "population trend of decreasing".
Yes, the Polar Bears are an indangered spaecies
The polar bear is not yet an endangered species. However, it was recently considered to be a threatened species, meaning it is at risk for becomming endangered.
No, they are listed as vulnerable.
The polar bear is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN.
The polar bear is currently listed as "Vulnerable", with a population of nearly 25000.
Yes. The Arctic Polar Ice Cap is melting, possibly due to Global Warming, and this is the Polar Bears' natural habitat. They can not compete in open water or on dry land, as they tend to feed on seals that are below the ice, breaking through the ice to capture them.

No, no Government or science group claims this. Political groups do, but they are ignoring the growing numbers.
No they are not, but are considered threatened. See IUCN Redlist.
yes they are indangerd
yes, they are endangered animals. The polar bear is listed as Vulnerable. Not endangered, the population is nearing 25000 in the wild.
At present, there are beteen 20000-25000 polar bears, and they are considered "Threatened", by the IUCN, not an endangered species at this time.Polar bears have never been extinct. Though they were on the endangered species list the numbers are now recovering and still considered 'at risk'.
No, the word you're looking for is endangered. Polar bears are an endangered species.
yes polar bears would. think polar bears would love there cubs as if you love your children
They are not at risk. Some groups would like you to believe they are endangered to collect money from people. The reality though is that these bears are thriving and are now over 25,000 in numbers. Some people believe that the polar bear COULD someday become endangered if global warming were to become worse, or be real.
The generally accepted definition of an endangered species is one that faces a very high risk of extinction in the near future. Polar bears do not fit this definition yet because there are still about 20,000 individuals living in the wild. The loss of sea ice in the Arctic in recent years, however, poses a serious threat to polar bear habitat. Polar bears can only hunt seals, their main source of food, when the seas are frozen. When the sea ice melts, the bears are stuck on land where there isn't much food available for them. As the ice melts for longer periods each year, there is a growing danger that the bears can't get enough food in the winter to sustain them through the other three seasons. For that reason, the U.S. Dept. of Interior decided in 2008 to list the polar bear as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), ruling that loss of habitat puts polar bears at risk of becoming endangered in the foreseeable future.
loss of ice due to global warming
Some endangered animals are: Bactrian camel , Asian elephant , Onager Aye-aye, Red panda, Pygmy hippopotamus, Slender loris, Indian rhinoceros, Grevy's zebra, Mountain zebra, Malagasy giant, jumping rat
As of now, the polar bear is a vulnerable species, not on the endangered species list, as some populations are increasing.
Polar bears were added to the list of endangered and threatened species in 2006. However, studies show that their number have been increasing since 2001, with about 4,200 more polar bears in 2013 than there were in 2001. If the trend continues, they will no longer be threatened.
POLAR BEARS ARE BEING KILLED BY GLOBAL WARMING. AND WE NEED ALL THE ANIMAL SPECIES WE CAN GET. DON'T YOU GET SAD WHEN YOU THINK THAT POLAR BEARS ARE DIEING BECAUSE OF US. YES! THAT'S RIGHT WE ARE KILLING THEM BY CAUSING POLLUTION.WE SHOULD SAVE THEM, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT CAUSING NO HARM TO US SO WHY SHOULD WE KILL THEM. SO THEY ARE IN RISK OF EXTINCTION. WHICH MEANS THEY COULD NO LONGER BE IN THIS WORLD, JUST LIKE DINOSAURS.You should help them because their habitat is being destroyed and they are really cute...You should help polar bears because they are on the verge of extinction.
What this means is that the animal is at risk of becoming endangered or extinct.
