Wildlife veterinarians job is to treat captured animals and release them back into the wild. If you want any specifics you would have one of them

In Churchill, Canada they have a polar bear jail, where they place captured polar bears that wander into town. I would guess that some veterinary care is provided since they stay there for up to 30 days, but you’d have to ask them for any specifics if you want it.

Releasing captured diseased animals has been done before. You are welcome to ask those that have done that what considerations were made for preventing the spread of disease, but as I have said repeatedly, I am not an expert in the relevant field, so I won’t speculate.

Also, if I’m a troll, you should be flagging me for the moderators.

They removed my sarcastic comment calling it a troll. I have no expectation that they would recognize sea-lioning.

Do you really think that it is as impossible to reintegrate a lost bear into a population as time travel is? It’s just an absurd comparison.

Your reading comprehension failed you there. “You did not say me” as in you did not say that I was qualified.

Okay, let’s have them reverse time and unshoot the bear.

Do you really think that I am advocating for changing past actions? Are you so ignorant for what advocation is for.

And if I’m a troll, why are you indulging me? Do you enjoy being trolled? Shouldn’t you stop engaging?

Meh. Better me than anybody else.

I asked you who was qualified to come up with a plan and you did not say me, so I didn’t come up with one. Are you changing your answer now?

I am an advocate for a solution other than killing.

your silly attempt to give me negative internet points.

I downvote trolls. It probably does nothing, but I try.

For the easy solution, all you have to do is ask the people with the gun. Congratulations the easy solution won.

Who do you think is qualified to make such a plan?

I have given an alternative. It is just not perfectly detailed enough for some random person on the internet that has no say in anything related to the subject.

You seem to want to know the answer to the question and I have already given you all I can. so I will just repeat:

I certainly would not be involved so I don’t know why you think I should be the one that comes up with any plan. I don’t have to be a subject matter expert to advocate for a cause. I don’t have to be an OB-GYN to advocate for abortion rights. I don’t have to be an environmental scientist to advocate for action on climate change. And I don’t have to be an expert on polar bears to be able to say “Maybe we shouldn’t kill polar bears.”

That’s something you should ask Greenland, something one might do in some sort of negotiation.
