Polar Bear Penises Being Destroyed By PCBs, Left Unable To Reproduce

Polar bear penises are being destroyed buy toxic chemicals and pollution, leaving them unable to mate, Denmark scientists claim. Researchers at Aarhus University believe that pollutants known as polychlorinated biphenyls or PCBs are to blame for polar bears developing a less dense penile bone.

PCBs used to make rubber goods and paints in the 1930s but have been banned since 2001. The polychlorinated biphenyls were banned from use after scientists discovered the chemical could cause cancer.
