Anyone heard that a 1/2 Griz and 1/2 Polar
Bear was shot on Banks Island . Can anyone find Pictures. It was in the news , came a cross my TV screan like a ticker Tape.This was 2 days ago.

Golar and Pizzly post on this site was my first alert. Also, CBC had a contest on what to call the thing. All kinds of names suggested like above.

My name would be Grizzly Cross P, and for a Grizzly and Black Bear cross I would name it Grizzly Cross B.

To find Pic just Google search to (Grizzly and polar bear cross) it should get you to www.thestar.com or the Toronto Star. They got a pic of Mr. Martell's bear. Looks like a polar with a gray, brown snout.

on this site you can se a picture to

May be another example of global-warming at work. More overlap of ranges as weather warms. I'm surprised this is the first.

I'm still trying to figure out why anyone would pay $45,000 for a bear hunt. My choke point is still around $13,000 for any hunt.

Guess when a male grizzly decides to mate, he does not get much argument from the intended mating partner.

Excuse me for "necroposting", but I was watching Predator CSI on NG. NG painted the hunter in a positive light! I was impressed.

Saw part of the same show. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when the game wardens found out that they couldn't continue with the charges and had to give the hide and skull back.

Global warming is all a farce. Look at the history of the earth; from the beginning she has been warming and cooling. Besides, Grizzly and Polar bear territory has overlapped for centuries. Not just in the past few years.

The mount was at SCI Reno in 07, very nicely done. I was told that that would be his last public showing. A shame, it really is a must see in person. Unfortunately, the 07 pictures of the mount are no longer available on the SCI website.

kensco it was 42below here on tuesday and I am 2500km south of the polar bears.Global warming is a lie to take your mind off the rotton economy.University studies on the weather state that we are gradually cooling,in another 30,000years there will be another ice age and 40 or so thousand years after that it will start to warm up again,call me then because I am sick of the cold weather now....jack
