Polar Bears Took Over an Abandoned Russian Island Town and Moved Into the Houses | Joe Rogan

A whole island town in the Bering Sea was reportedly taken over by polar bears, who moved into the abandoned houses. In this clip, Joe Rogan talks with wildlife expert Forrest Galante about drone footage of polar bears living inside an abandoned Russian settlement, and how far these animals can travel. They discuss reported cases of polar bears swimming from Greenland to Iceland, an estimated 200 miles, and how just two bears could start a new population. The conversation also covers a medieval account of a polar bear kept at the Tower of London in 1252, complete with a keeper and a swimming leash. If two polar bears can colonize an island on their own, what other places might they already be living? 💬 What do you think about polar bears reclaiming abandoned places?
