Climate change is causing polar bears to eat dolphins
In case you needed more evidence that climate change is the worst, consider the fate of the dolphin that, lured by warmer waters, wanders northward — and straight into the bloody maw of a polar bear. From Bloomberg:
Scientists for the first time observed the bears feasting on white-beaked dolphins in Svalbard in the Norwegian Arctic. They theorize the dolphins, coaxed northward by warmer waters, were trapped under the ice and killed by the bears when coming up for air through a small hole, they wrote in a new study. [Bloomberg]
