With seven of the worlds eight species of bears endangered and the other threatened, interest in these solitary, majestic creatures is greater than ever. A Band of Bears combines interesting facts and vivid images to profile the truly wild lives of polar bears, grizzlies, black bears, and others. Here young readers learn about bear behavior: their predatory nature, their curiosity, their omnivorous eating habits, their intelligence and resourcefulness, and their fierce protectiveness as parents. A Band of Bears separates fact from popular fiction, explaining everything youngsters want to know about these endlessly fascinating creatures.
