In a salute to the Polar Bear

In a small way and as a salute to the listing of the polar bear as a threatened species, I have gone through my endless supply of articles on various species and found what I hope are some of the more positive stories on some of our larger friends.

First, lets start with the main attraction here, the polar bear. From the Grist comes “Bearly Legal” by Kate Sheppard.

Next we have two stories on two different rhinos. First we have,  “Species Sucess: Rhinos Recover” by Clara Moskowitz at Live Science. This includes both the White and Black Rhinos of Africa. Second, we have “End of Maoist Strife Spurs Nepal Rhino Numbers” from ENN.

Then there is “Presumed Extinct Javan Elephants May Have Been Found Again- In Borneo” at Science Daily.

Finally, we have this story, “At Indian Preserves, Tigers Remain King as People Are Coaxed Out” by Somini Sengupta of the New York Times.

Sincerely-
