Tim Blair links to a great story. Here's an excerpt from Tim's site...
I like his line at the end, 'Poor little guys; if only that ice could be melted somehow.'... Where's Al Gore when you need him?! Actually from what I read Al Gore has his own cold weather system following him around... it's affectionately known as the "Gore effect". Kind of like those Arctic air masses that come down from the North every once in a while...
I suppose some kind of cold air mass must be released from somewhere to cause the 'Gore effect', but no one I know of seems to know where these are emanating from... maybe Big 'Al' can fill us in...
Alaskan sea otters are starving! Why? Because there’s too much ice:
An unbudging sheath of sea ice has blocked off the waters where the Alaska Peninsula’s sea otters forage, forcing the starving animals inland on a search for food and making them easy prey for wolves and humans.
Some otters have waddled or slid on their bellies for several miles onto the tundra near Port Heiden, where they have been attacked by dogs, killed for their pelts or have died of malnourishment ...
Similar freeze-outs have been documented since the early 1970s.
