Polar Bears Are Gone Now Polar bears are gone now all that’s left are bones, Scattered widely ’cross the land that used to be their home. These bears can paddle sixty miles that’s always been their way, But more than that is far too much their lives they had to pay. The ice broke up quite suddenly as they chased along for seal, Polar bears they went extinct just trying to get a meal. The polar bears all left you know just up and went away, First dinosaurs and now the bears "Are tigers next?" you say.
