‘Exhausted’ polar bear found 700km from home in Russian village
Environmental activists have blamed climate change for appearance of polar bear in the Kamchatka Peninsula
Residents of a village in Russia’s far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula have been stunned by the sight of a polar bear prowling for food hundreds of miles from its usual habitat.
Russian media reported on Wednesday that the exhausted-looking animal apparently traveled from Chukotka to the village of Tilichiki on Kamchatka, some 700km (434 miles) south.
