This must be due to the fact that it’s quite rare these days to spot penguins south of 64 degrees*. It makes sense really; polar bears are famous for feasting on small mammals like penguins and then withdrawing themselves under the ever-frost to digest. If there’s no penguins or ever-frost, they must either move somewhere else or die. Full National Geographic story here, including a video.
