  I've seen polar bears.I grew up in alaska, and i'm so happy to see this. Is evolution incarnate and this means the polar bears don't disappear, they just evolve. Thank god for making a system that can adapt to a surroundings.I can't believe people are so d*** dumb.That they think he would do anything else

  All I have to say is that if or when any of these hybrids start to become a serious problem,  it will be a problem of our own creation with every single one of these hybrids, and when the time comes to do something, that something better not be destroying them. Its not their fault it is the way it is.

  Hybrids are NOT usually weaker than their parents, they tend to be stronger, hence the term 'hybrid vigor'. An excellent example of a domestic hybrid is the mule. Although sterile, the mule is tougher and more intelligent than its horse mother and its donkey father.

  They say cougars do not live in Nova Scotia, but many people have seen them here.<br>Also our Bobcats are growing bigger to fill a lack of large predators that were hunted to extinction.

  When you can’t find a suitable mate you find an exotic one that fits the bill.

  Nice to see the ice age is still receding still to this day... It&apos;s been receding for the past 10,000 years...

  Last winter I finally saw a coy-wolf--while driving my early morning work route--and it did not behave like a coyote or a timber-wolf. It disregarded my work car flying by on the highway while it worked a road-killed deer carcass. I knew exactly what I was looking at. If you know what the parent species look like, and their behavior, you can recognize a coy-wolf. I drive for work. My regular route takes me through northern Minnesota. A coworker hit a moose one night with the work car, lol (both lived, the car did not)! I&apos;ve seen quite a few bears and even more coyotes. I&apos;ve also seen the tracks of wild Mountain Lions several times. They are HUGE and cannot be confused with bear or canids. One early morning I saw a timber wolf a quarter mile from my house and it was something I&apos;ll never forget. He was huge, with almost human facial expressions I swear I could read. I grew up with the beautiful, earie howls of wild wolves at night, and many many coyotes howls further west, in North Dakota where we lived for a few years. My brother and I learned to imitate timber wolf howls well enough to fool them on camping trips--yes, they would call back and even come closer! I have also heard the weird mixed call of the coy-wolf on the old family farm, and guessed what it was before this video confirmed it.<br>Thanks Wilder America! You have validated my personal observations. I have just now subscribed.

  Coydogs are getting common in the midlands of SC. Some 20 years ago, I saw 3 standing on the side of the road. Obviously coyote body, but the heads had a distinct bull terrier look. Could imagine tangling with a coyote that had a bull terriers bite force?

  Wolf dog, neighbors had one and he was nice and happy to be around people/anyone. Temperament was lot better then most German Shepherds, looked a little like one but 150lbs and fluffy, his only bad habit was digging holes.<br>Coyotes by Chicago are in the 30 -50lb range, we have a lot of them.<br>CLIMATE has never been better for life, wildlife exploded in numbers over the past 65 years. Rare to see deer as a kid and now they&apos;re everywhere, have to protect everything they eat the flowers along the house and walk up to you. Couldn&apos;t get near a rabbit as a kid and now I can&apos;t scare them away, had to toss rocks at them to get them out of the garden. BUT all is good, like seeing it.
