Well, if they found no wobble they'd better pass that info along to these guys.

Droughts are causing Earth to wobble on its axis, according to new research.
You know that land mass and the magnetic field are different things, right? You are attributing the effect of one on the other, then dismissing both because they don't match.

And these guys because they quite obviously didn't get the memo either.
https://earthsky.org/earth/how-earths-m ... ging-swarmOnce again we have what some people would call, scientific consensus.
Again, why would there be any theory, when there is no data? You cite a blog for knowing a cause, but not showing any relationship with any data. That's the way science works; first we gather data, then we postulate a theory that explains the data, and test the theory to see if it explains future observations.
So you post some Innu who say bears follow magnetic fields, and the fields are changing so the bears are moving. But where is the data that the bears even follow fields? You cite how the Earths' magnetic field changes, but where is the relationship to the bears? Is this based on tribal historical stories? If so, how do they know about magnetic fields?

So, like I said, I'll believe the man in the field rather or in this case tundra rather than the one sitting in some lab counting his grant money.
I've come to the conclusion that your distrust of science is because you misunderstand how it works. Do you understand that these pictures of bears are taken by the 'lab guys' who most certainly are not in a lab but 'in the field'?
Freakinoldguy Freakinoldguy:
But even if the wobble isn't affecting the earths magnetic field something is causing it to change and that could be screwing up the animals.
https://www.sciencealert.com/new-study- ... we-thoughtWe know that many birds migrations are guided by Earth's magnetic fields, and that their changing will cause problems for the birds. I've posted a few stories on it; like the North American Red Winged Blackbird being seen in the UK.
But where has anyone shown it relates to bears?
