Rare attack on mother, child in Alaska renews interest in polar bear patrols

Summary by Ground News
Polar bear attacks are extremely rare, but as climate change reduces the amount of Arctic ice, the number of encounters between people and bears is on the rise. A polar bear attack killed a mother and her 1-year-old son in Wales, a tiny, remote Alaska whaling village whose bear patrol had lapsed. The incident underscored the risks of living alongside the creatures, which can weigh over 1,700 pounds.
