The polar bear is much older than previously thought, according to new genetic evidence.
DNA studies suggest the Arctic predator split from its ancestor, the brown bear, about 600,000 years ago.
Previous estimates put the polar bear at about 150,000 years old, suggesting the mammal adapted very rapidly to Arctic life.
Conservationists say the new study, published in Science, has implications for bear conservation.

What utter cock. If indeed they started to appear as white polar bears around 600,000 years ago, it must be because that's when they met man and got scared. That's why they changed so quickly, it's got nothing to do with adapting to arctic life and everything to do with scientific researchmade up bullshit from Byers.
You believe there were humans in the arctic 600,000 years ago?
HUMANS IN THE ARCTIC 600,000 YEARS AGO!
EVERYONE knows thats where the aliens who planted all the 'fossil's' had there base.
