When Russians get Drunk

[MtnCreek]

Footage shared on social media in Russia of a polar bear with "T-34" spray-painted in black on its side has alarmed experts.

Experts warned the stunt could affect the animal's ability to blend in with its surroundings and hunt for food.

An investigation is under way to determine exactly where in Arctic Russia the video was filmed.

The T-34 was a tank that played a vital role in the Soviet Union's defeat of Nazi Germany in World War Two.

The footage was posted on Facebook by Sergey Kavry, a member of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) nature organisation, and then shared by local media.

This may be obvious to some but their prey will only see this when it is to late:

Maybe it is a scientific tracking study or something. Paint bad, dart and tracking collar good.

I dont want them to go extinct, but hell I have bigger problems to deal with today.

People need to not get their panties in a bunch so easy.

Something I've always wondered on hunting rifles.
I'm all for a cool camo/cerakote job to finish off a custom hunting rig but...
The only part the intended target should see is the approximate 1" circle at the end of the barrel.
I can't get my mind right...
