Well, to be honest with you, you actually have to get a special license to hunt them. No one poaches polar bears as often as the liberal media says they do: maybe one to ten polar bears are poached for their fur in the U.S. and Canada a year. There is more red tape to sell expensive furs like that than allows poachers to just send a polar bear skin off to the store. But the media would like us to pour money into a cause that is not there, and is actually caused by the polar bears probably eating each other.

Whales, dolphins and otters were all descended from small land carnivores; the size of the land ancestors of seals, sea lions and walruses is unknown. Polar bears also bring in tourist dollars that are much more valuable than the price of their carcasses, especially over the long term.
