A mass weighing 100kg at the north pole would only weigh 99.5kg at the equator

That assumes a perfectly spherical earth. The earth is not perfectly spherical.

I did.

Wildlife veterinarians job is to treat captured animals and release them back into the wild. If you want any specifics you would have one of them.

My initial comment did not explicitly say they would be treated because I thought that would be obvious. I guess I gave you too much credit. But you still should have figured it out when I mention veterinarians.

Who is going to pay for that? The government? Why would voters agree to spend money on something needed about once a decade?

Again that’s not something I am qualified to to work out. You would have to ask someone else for that.

I thought you would prefer something more polar bear oriented, but OK. And to be clear since I think your reading comprehension might be failing you again, they treat the diseases before releasing the animals.

Here is an organization that does that.

And a youtube channel that does it as well.

Now, I haven’t vetted them to see if they are perfect at their jobs, but it is certainly an example of what I suggested.

Also, why would Iceland build a polar bear jail when there hasn’t been another polar bear since 2016?

So they don’t have to shoot the bears obviously.

In Churchill, Canada they have a polar bear jail, where they place captured polar bears that wander into town. I would guess that some veterinary care is provided since they stay there for up to 30 days, but you’d have to ask them for any specifics if you want it.

Releasing captured diseased animals has been done before. You are welcome to ask those that have done that what considerations were made for preventing the spread of disease, but as I have said repeatedly, I am not an expert in the relevant field, so I won’t speculate.

Also, if I’m a troll, you should be flagging me for the moderators.

They removed my sarcastic comment calling it a troll. I have no expectation that they would recognize sea-lioning.

Do you really think that it is as impossible to reintegrate a lost bear into a population as time travel is? It’s just an absurd comparison.

Your reading comprehension failed you there. “You did not say me” as in you did not say that I was qualified.

Okay, let’s have them reverse time and unshoot the bear.

Do you really think that I am advocating for changing past actions? Are you so ignorant for what advocation is for.

And if I’m a troll, why are you indulging me? Do you enjoy being trolled? Shouldn’t you stop engaging?

Meh. Better me than anybody else.

I asked you who was qualified to come up with a plan and you did not say me, so I didn’t come up with one. Are you changing your answer now?

I am an advocate for a solution other than killing.

your silly attempt to give me negative internet points.

I downvote trolls. It probably does nothing, but I try.

For the easy solution, all you have to do is ask the people with the gun. Congratulations the easy solution won.

Who do you think is qualified to make such a plan?

I have given an alternative. It is just not perfectly detailed enough for some random person on the internet that has no say in anything related to the subject.

You seem to want to know the answer to the question and I have already given you all I can. so I will just repeat:

I certainly would not be involved so I don’t know why you think I should be the one that comes up with any plan. I don’t have to be a subject matter expert to advocate for a cause. I don’t have to be an OB-GYN to advocate for abortion rights. I don’t have to be an environmental scientist to advocate for action on climate change. And I don’t have to be an expert on polar bears to be able to say “Maybe we shouldn’t kill polar bears.”

That’s something you should ask Greenland, something one might do in some sort of negotiation.

Do you expect me to personally negotiate with Greenland?

That would require an effort by conservation groups, the various governments, and polar bear experts. If you really wanted to know you could check the plans they made in previous attempts.

And I don’t have to be an expert on polar bears to be able to say “Maybe we shouldn’t kill polar bears.”

Since my comment was removed for trolling (I wasn’t trolling, it was just sarcasm), I will rephrase it. If we accept the premises that any polar bear that is a threat should be killed and every polar bear is inherently a threat, then the conclusion is that every polar bear should be killed. I reject the first premise and conclusion.

How do you know?

The articles I have read only say that the woman saw it outside her house. There was no indication that it had attempted anything other than rummage through garbage. And the police had to travel about 30 km by boat to get there, so the response time couldn’t have been quick

Please show me a map of where it was found in relation to places where people live.

Well, another article says it was in Höfðaströnd There are only a few buildings there and spread far apart, so the only relevant person is the one woman.

How do you know this was actually doable?

They attempted it before so they thought it was doable. There was a commission to decide how to handle polar bears in the future and all they said was that it cost too much.

And they should be forced to bear a cost burden they can’t afford?

It didn’t say that they couldn’t afford it, just that they wouldn’t pay for it. (You keep rephrasing things in a way that was not intended to try to make your position stronger. That’s called a strawman argument. You should stop that.) And they seem to be getting a lot of complaints from Icelanders that are upset that they killed the bear, so it probably wouldn’t be forced, but something that many Icelanders would be willing to pay.

There was no hurry. It could have been captured and released back in Greenland, but Iceland won’t do that because of the cost, so they just kill it. How much would you be willing to contribute to prevent a polar bear from being killed?

This one was not actively posing a threat.
