Are polar bear conservation efforts working?
Absolutely and unequivocally they have made incredible gains over the past 100 years. From lows of under 1000 bears we now believe that there are over 20,000 bears (possibly as high as 26,000) roaming the ice and swimming the waters of the Arctic. This is why they are not on the endangered species list and why countries even allow selective hunting of these creatures.
A recent survey of 19 separate population groups did show that some areas could see reductions in their numbers. These population centers included: Baffin Bay, Kane Basin, Western Hudson Bay, Lancaster Sound and Norwegian Bay. Of these five groups the possible population numbers show possible increases that are lower than the increases found on other areas.

How do Polar bears prepare for winter?
Polar bears present a mixed bag of responses to winter ... a female polar bear makes a den in which to give birth and then take care of her cubs, other polar bears remain active throughout the whole year. Interestingly some polar bears enter a state which is known as walking hibernation.
As the Arctic winter lasts almost half the year, hibernating for the whole winter becomes problematic - they would starve to death even with the reduced energy demand during hibernation. All of the options require that the bears fatten up when the hunting is good. They do this during the spring. summer and fall.
g+b=43, g=b+7, (b+7)+b=43, (-7), 2b=36, b=18, g=18+7=25.
Scientists once thought that polar bears were left handed. Now they believe that they have no preference and use both paws equally.

In what countries to polar bears live?
This would be really hard to judge, but if you use history, and action taken to help protect the Polar Bears as an indicator of appreciation of them. Then the countries that signed the agreement in 1973, would be high on the list. They agreed to set up regulations to protect the Polar Bear's denning sites, and migration routes, from human disturbances plus, designed regulations for the numbers, and types of hunting allowed of all the Polar Bears, and areas, and included studies, and research on the Polar Bears. The countries were, Canada, United States, Denmark, Norway, and Russia, or what is know as the former U.S.S.R. They signed the International Agreement on the Conservation of the Polar Bears and their Habitat
How do you take a centre of a Toonie out?
You are not supposed to remove a center of a "Toonie" (Canadian Two Dollar Coin), or for that matter, deface any Canadian Coin (or Paper Money) at all. Exceptions are made for Colourised or Laser Colourisations of Canadian Coins. Removing the centre of a Canadian coin is illegal, as this is Canadian Federal Coinage, and is protected by law at Ottawa, Ontario, Canada by Parliament. Heavy-duty tools would be needed to remove the Toonie centres, and this method would be tantamount to defacing the Coins. A quite similar law was passed in the United States several years ago as well by the U.S. Congress. In that case, similar exceptions were also made, which particularly mentioned the U.S. 1 Cent Coin. E-mail the Bank of Canada or other Canadian legal authorities before you attempt to do this to make sure you do not get unnecessarily penalized for it.
What winter sleep is to a polar bear?
A nap. Majority of polar bears do not sleep during the winter. Heavily pregnant sows will, but only for a few months out of the entire winter, then they're up and about with their cubs hunting on the sea ice.
What kinda of weather can polar bears stay in?
Well they prefer the cold, snow and what not. But if theres not snow around for the moment, they survive in moderate heat, the places that they live usually don't go past 20*C. Thought too much heat would kill them as there coat (fur) is very thick.
