Indian Express: Increasing number of polar bears, which otherwise hunt seals, are now resorting to attacking and eating their own kind in a bid to satiate their hunger, a recent photo evidence has revealed. The photograph clicked by environmental photojournalist Jenny Ross shows an adult polar bear dragging the body of a cub that it has just killed across the Arctic sea ice. “This type of intraspecific predation has always 
occurred to some extent,” the BBC quoted Ross as saying. “However, there are increasing numbers of observations of it occurring, particularly on land where polar bears are trapped ashore, completely food-deprived for extended periods of time due to the loss of sea ice as a result of climate change,” she said. The killing technique used by the adult was precisely similar to what the polar bears use on seals -- sharp bites to the head. 'Source: : Hungry' polar bears turn to 'cannibalism' - Indian Express
