Oh, wow it wont be Valentines Day for polar bears. Apparently, chemicals polluting the Arctic region have boosted bone disease (osteoporosis) in these northern creatures. That leads to bone loss and bone re-absorption. And thats bad news for boy polar bears.
Contrary to that slang term, a human male does not have a bone in his boner. Why? Well, for one important reason, the human male parts wouldnt fit into human female parts.
But polar bears and some other mammals do have a bone in their penises called a baculum. And that is where the trouble lies. Bone disease interferes with their ability to mate.
Christian Sonne is one of the scientists at Aarhus University in Denmark who discovered this problem through research. ScienceNordic reports in its interview with Sonne, professor of marine mammal research in the schools Department of Bioscience:
The North Pole, for instance, is one of the most polluted places on earth despite its geographical remoteness from any kind of industry, says Sonne.

(26,606 posts)over time, natural selection will favor male polar bears who are gentler, more sensitive lovers. They will develop poetry, music, personal grooming, and the bringing of flowers. Female polar bears will find the copulatory acts to be something more than a grunting sweaty interlude with a godawful boar, and will seek it out. More and more cubs will result, and soon polar bears will rule the world...
...but sadly, they will be the kinder, gentler, more romantic form of polar bears - and the narwhals will righteously fuck their shit up.

Well, the claws, and the fangs, and the 1200 pounds of annihilatory muscular fury are also differences, but mostly the screw-top.
