Maybe someone told the bears that a big forest fire was coming and they are just trying to be prepared.

I dare to care how a polar bear would fare during a solar flare.

A limerick? Great heavens, this one calls for a
sonnet!One night I dreamt I was an Eskimo
With furry coat, a dogsled and harpoons
A frozen feller on a Northern floe
With ice-axe, rope, and on my boots crampoons
Stalking was I, out for the crafty seal
Just like the one from out my car I blew
“It’s just ice cream,” that penguin made appeal
But never mind that old joke, I beg you
A polar bear then walked up, burning bright
And stared at me, his pallid fur a-sizzle
And said “Yo Bill, this ain’t no Northern Light,
It just ain’t good to smoke up all that shizzle.
So pass the Sterno, count your limbs, beware,
You're breakfast for a Nomex polar bear.”
What do you mean "don't give up the day job?"

Dang. I thought maybe the scare was over the possibility that we might start harvesting polar bears for their flame retardant blubber.

How do people like you do things like that! With a reward large as life or a gun to my head I could not be as clever like that in 5 years of trying.

And I, for one, welcome our new polar overlords. They really can't do worse than the current overlords. I for one will appreciate there "direct" approach to issues.
OH MY GO...Burp
