Scientists : Polar Bear Numbers 'Qualified Guess' | The Daily Caller
The polar bear population has been a focal point of Global Warming claims.
Now, we have this.
If nothing else, it should make us very skeptical about other agenda driven claims...

Michael Bastasch has the story at DailyCaller.com:
"PBSG has for years said that global polar bear populations were between 20,000 and 25,000, but these estimates are likely much lower than how many polar bears are actually living in the world.
“Based on previous PBSG estimates and other research reports, it appears there are probably at least another 6,000 or so bears living in these regions and perhaps as many as 9,000 (or more) that are not included in any PBSG ‘global population estimate,’" Crockford wrote on her blog.
'These are guesses, to be sure, but they at least give a potential size,' Crockford added. PBSG disclosed this information to Crockford ahead of the release of their Circumpolar Polar Bear Action Plan in which they intend to put a footnote explaining why their global population estimate is flawed."
