Worth the risk to move him or leave him alone?

Move him to a better facility in Argentina or euthanize him. This is so inhumane - 20 INCHES of water?? in Argentinian heat?? - that it makes my blood boil.
I agree with moving him even if they did take the risk of taking him to Canada. Seems a much better route than what is now occurring. Don't like to think about him suffering away his last few years.
Poor guy. Either move him or bring him some company. I don't even agree with Solitary confinement as a concept for prison inmates, let alone animals who did nothing wrong. There is no surer way to drive something insane then to lock it up by itself.
A polar bear shouldn't be in a warm climate at all. And Alone! and in these conditions. Send him to some place with elbow room and some mates to play with.
Yea ikr^ it is not called Polar Bear because it lives in warm places smh dummies
I would at least assume that his habitat is climate controlled to suit his needs, right??
Move him. If he's in the last years of his life, let them be happier years. If he doesn't survive the trip, that's still better than continuing to live in obvious misery.

This is very sad. If they could only bring him to our zoo here in Winnipeg this is what his enclosure would look like: (versus suffering Argentinian heat and having only 20 inches of water in his enclosure where he is now!)
That picture is amazing neesy. the polar bear musbt be in heaven lol i wish the one in Argentina was there too.

They recently renovated our old zoo and even though the price has gone up, it's much nicer now. (Plus it gets so darn cold here in Winnipeg the bears will feel right at home in the winter!)
(Andy and I just recently walked through that part - it was neat to look up and see a polar bear paw right over your head).

Another shot - they have seals swimming too but they keep them separated (of course)

This makes me feel even worse for poor José Frio (or whatever his name is - the link won't work for me because of Yahoo issues).
This just pisses me off that this polar bear has to endure the seasons in Argentina.

I don't know it might be cool to pay to see nature in action.
(or maybe not.) They'd run out of seals fast though...
