In Antartica, Polar Bears have to compete to stay alive, the fattest one usually has the longer live. Global Warming is the thing that threatens their live, the ice is melting and not giving the Polar bears a proper place to live. The ploar bears migrate around to find places with more food and shelter. A new studies has shown that the average polar bears must consume thousands of calories. During November to December, the sea ice starts to melt and the polar bears migrate to a different area. When the polar bears are gone from their original habitat. Scientists have noticed how Polar bears have evolved from being predators.
Some of the Polar bears might not see any food for long while and when they do they probably are weak,because they don't have enough energy. They will end up dead. The polar bears have to eat as much as they can ,so they could survive the harsh climates of the winter. Dr. Cherry Ross ahs done some investigations on the polare bears and how they interact with each other. The Polar bears now have learned how to adapt to land from when the sea ice has melts they have another place to go. I think the polar bears need to do more adapting if they want to become an ever-lasting species.

Non-fiction article: Remains of Extinct Giant Camel Discovered in High Arctic
In Canada, a research team has found remains of giant camels from the artic ages. The fossils were
based on 30 fossil fragments of a leg bone found on Ellesmere Island. The Camels ancestors were to
have originate some 45 million years ago, they were from North America. Many of these fossil were
collected over some time periods (2006,2008 and 2010) and they are about three-and-a-half million
years old, from the mid-pilocene era. The Artic camel probably lived in a forest-type of environment.
I'm really interested on what types of behavoirs went on in those specific time periods in life. Like
my other non-fiction articles, I like to write about new discoveries that talk about early life. Scientists
were trying to develop a mammoth cell in a petri dish , so they could try to clone mammoths. To
determine how the fossils belong to a camel, they had to perform some kind of scaning which took
some DNA samples to help decide the species. Later discoveries and information will be
discovered,but for right now there is evidence that the camel got it's looks from this animal. I think
this is another idea that challenges the theory of evolution.
