Male polar bear chases and eats a cub - and scientists say climate change may be to blame
Gruesome footage captured during a National Geographic expedition shows the moment a male polar bear chases down a cub and eats it.
The video reveals a heartbreaking truth which is rarely seen by human eyes – cannibalism events like this one are not all that uncommon, and could become more regular as climate change drives food scarcity in the Arctic.
Despite efforts by the female to protect her baby, the male pounces atop the cub and tears it apart in just seconds, leaving the traumatized mother to run for her own life.
