Arctic sea ice extent is higher today than in 2005, when concerns of potential
impacts on polar bears were pushed by "experts." Plenty of sea ice at mid-April
2024 for spring feeding & mating, as there was in 2005.

Polar bears need first year ice for successful hunting, so the reduced ice
thickness or volume doesn't matter. Polynyas (areas of open water) in
winter/spring are also necessary in many areas for successful hunting of seals
and small whales.
"Despite the Arctic warming four times as fast as the rest of the world with
rising CO2 levels and ~50% less summer ice than there was in 1979, polar bears
are no closer to extinction than they were 15 years ago, according to the
results of field studies."
