Dateline: Moscow - Receding Arctic ice is forcing Polar bears off their preferred terrain. As such, 52 bears invaded a little village above the Arctic Circle, scaring the people and daily routines are being disrupted. As they then encountered an "open dump" it appears they will be around for a while. "The bear is a curious animal, and it will smell the human food. This is an anthropogenic problem" so says a leading Russian expert on Polar bears.
