If a polar bear mother rejected the baby, then I believe the zoo must follow the instincts of nature," Albrecht said. "In the wild, it would have been left to die." "The zoo must kill the bear."

Yes IN THE WILD, but he's not IN THE WILD now IS HE? Grrrrrr...
I don't mind people caring about animals, and I support the "nature's system" but these comments make me sick. This little bear is in a Zoo, where humans are responsible for its survival. If it were in the wild, then Nature would have it's own way of "survival of the fittest"
I know zookeepers have intervened and fed Rhinos, and monkeys, and what not in order to sustain them for life inside the zoos. Its not as though they are planning to release the bear to live in the wild. It won't be too many more years and the ONLY place you will see many animals will be IN THE ZOO.
