Apr 09, 2021 11:58 AM EDT As sea ice melts earlier in the year due to climate change, polar bears have begun their hunt for food on land, like bird eggs. They are not too good at it, a  recent drone-based study shows. That could be another bad sign for the ability of bears to survive in a changing world, researchers say.

April 8, 2021 PARIS (AFP) – Hungry polar bears are increasingly foraging on seabird eggs as climate change shrinks their Arctic hunting grounds, but research published yesterday on the phenomenon highlights the struggle these apex predators have to adapt to their rapidly changing environment. The climate change threat to polar bears is well known, driven by the extraordinary pace of change in the Arctic, which is warming twice as fast as the planet as a whole. This is already leading to dwind...
