The heavy hand of mankind hangs uneasily over this sad incident. We have to state some basic facts here - this adventure group was invading the animals' natural habitat.

Secondly, mankind's activities in other fields that have led to global warming have already threatened the future of polar bears. It is thought this particular bear may have been attracted to the British campers by the smell of food.
