We had a similar problem up here. A bunch of environmental nazi's went up to study the polar bear's and their reaction to a clean up site on the slope. The bears were doing just fine, denning down as usual, hunting as usual, etc; basically ignoring the oil field work going on until the environmental people showed up. They annoyed the heck out of the bears by shooting them with tags and following them where ever they went. The bears left their dens and moved on to another location.
