Russian village is under siege from FIFTY-SIX hungry polar bears
UK Daily Mail ^ | December 6, 2019 | Will Stewart

A Russian village is under siege from at least 56 ravenous polar bears that have gathered on the outskirts of the remote outpost.

Remarkable images and footage show how Ryrkaypiy is now in virtual lockdown over the worrying predator invasion.

All public events have been cancelled and children were given extra protection as they travel to and from kindergarten and school.

Special bear patrols are trying to stop the 'hungry' bears entering residential areas.

So far the invasion is on the outskirts of the village - which has a population of 766 - in Russia's easternmost Chuktoka region, where the beasts are feasting on seal carcasses at Cape Kozhevnkov, according to reports.

“”””Polar bear livers, for some reason, contain far more Vitamin A than a human being can tolerate. It can be fatal. Some seals, walruses, etc. are the same way.”””””””

That’s why I cut way back on eating baby seals. You gotta think about your health, you know.

Notice, the article blames everything on “climate change.”

But, underneath the article, someone noted that one of the photos is misleading because it was taken in the summertime, that the weather has been cold enough, that the polar bears look hungry but also healthy and not starving, that the remote village is in polar bear territory, and that polar bears tend to gather.

How soon can Liam Neeson get there?

Or maybe we should send Leo.

He's a lover, not a fighter.

Three boxes of rifle ammunition including a few extra rounds to make sure the rifle is sighted in. Problem solved for $75 retail.

So if they are feasting on seal, are they still ravenous? Or are people just that last little bit of delicious pumpkin pie to shove in after Thanksgiving dinner?

SMOTHERED in REAL whipped cream.
