Is Santa Claus Toxic Because of Toxic Food up by the North Pole?

Every child knows that Santa Claus lives somewhere up by the North Pole. The North Pole has seen many changes in recent years with the melting ice and warmer summer temperatures. But climate change isn't the only bad news facing Santa Claus. Research from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) shows that if he's eating anything that lives in the Arctic, chances are that he is loaded with toxic chemicals. Biologists have reported high levels of contaminants in a range of Arctic animals and fish. Industrial pollutants from western Europe, North America and Asia are dispersed by the air and ocean currents and are then concentrated over the arctic. The chemicals are taken up by the smallest plants and animals lowest on the food chain, and are "biomagnified" the higher on the food chain an animal is. That's why the polar bears have some of the highest levels of toxic organic pollutants of any creature walking the planet. In a test of feeding dogs minke whale blubber that was contaminated with the chemicals showed altered thyroid hormones. Should Santa decide to diet a bit? Eating less fatty contaminated foods he won't have to worry about harmful health effects from the contaminants that are stored in his own fat belly.
