radar Polar bear leaps onto a Russian nuclear submarine

Quote:
An Inquisitive polar bear has been pictured stepping from the ice onto a Russian nuclear submarine while searching for food in the Arctic.

The Delta IV class sub is thought to have been north of the Norwegian islands of Svalbard and Jan Mayen when its crew decided to surface to get rid of bags of rubbish.

All 120 sailors on board were told to stay below deck while the 65stone bear had a sniff around their vessel, reports the Sunday Express.

Pictures taken from above the deck shows the lone polar bear sitting close to the submarine before it starts to cross the thick ice and leans in to get a closer look before steeping on.

He looks pretty healthy. I thought all the Polar Bears in the world were supposedly starving like a Venezuelan?

I remember seeing similar or even identical pictures a year or so ago and wonder if they are the same?

Icon14 Tragic Polar Bear attacks...

The EU noted that, with climate change threatening their environment, we can only expect an increase in polar bear attacks on submarines. A conference has been called to discuss the matter....
