Police have shot and killed a polar bear that came ashore in northwestern Iceland, the first sighting of a polar bear there since 2016. It might have hitched a ride from Greenland on a floating iceberg.

    Yes that part and the part about the bear being in the trash outside. Not an immediate threat.

      Again, please show me the map which shows how far away the bear was from a populated settlement.

        I’m guessing if you want a map you can find one online. The article says it was near a summer home.

          You’re making the claim, not me. It’s not my job to prove you’re not wrong, it’s yours. I know the article says it was near a summer home. I’m not sure why you think that’s relevant unless you think it was the only home in the area. In which case, show that.

              Yes. The article indeed does not say if anyone else lived nearby. Why are you assuming that means they don’t?
