During a WWF commercial featuring some guy by the name of Noah Wyle (Don't know him, but I would assume he's an important enough guy in someone's circle to pay to do this spot...), it was brought up that polar bears are hungry and dying off in record numbers, but giving the WWF my money (about $16/month) would stem a problem that nobody really even knows exists. I'm pretty sure Noah Wyle (Once again, whomever he is) does make weekly visits to the Arctic to keep an eye on things, though. Funny you bring this up.

Actually, any look at animals will show you many instances of adult males killing cubs, usually so as to mate with their mothers. The canibalism bit is a new twist.
