Police have shot and killed a polar bear that came ashore in northwestern Iceland, the first sighting of a polar bear there since 2016. It might have hitched a ride from Greenland on a floating iceberg.

    Got it. As long as the children have a way of scaring off the hungry polar bear when it gets to the school playground, no worries.

        I see, so post multiple guards around any place children might be just in case the rare polar bear makes landfall on Iceland so it can get scared away instead of mauling children.

        Very reasonable.

          How do the Scandinavians do recess? Surely they do and they don’t have a magic no polar bear fence. These are solved problems.
