RE: Starving Polar Bear Photographer Couldn't Help And Explains Why
I don't think the reporter is carrying enough food to keep him alive. plus, you have to understand that when an animal is in a starvation state there is a special diet to follow... dropping a leg of deer or half a seal next to him won't save him it might not even be able to chew it.
