Climate Change Is Forcing Polar Bears to Rewrite Their DNA

A new study suggests polar bears may be genetically adapting to survive a rapidly warming Arctic—in what researchers describe as a “glimmer of hope” for the endangered species.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/climate-change-is-forcing-polar-bears-to-rewrite-their-dna/

If there was one positive to climate change, it was the extinction of polar bears. These murder machines terrorize the arctic, killing everything I their path. They can and do kill whales and everything smaller. Luckily for us, they have been confined to the arctic ice. That is, for now. Per this thinly-sourced article, polar bears are not just going to survive global warming, they’re coming down on land to murder us all. Hug your kids

This probably has as much credibility as those social media posts a month ago about how raccoons are becoming domesticated (they are not). Evolution is an extremely slow process, maybe polar bears will evolve to live in warmer climates than they do now, but it's not a process humans are going to notice anytime soon.

In a way, yes. If you’re in northern states, you may be reclassified as a polar bear snack during winter months

Titanohyrax is an extinct genus of large to very large hyrax from the Eocene and Oligocene. Some species are estimated to have been as large as the modern rhinoceros. Estimates of body mass range from 600 kg (1,300 lb) to 1,300 kg (2,900 lb).
