Grrrrrrrrrrr! Huge, shaggy, and imposing, a grizzly bear can be a fearsome sight, especially when it rears up on its hind legs. Since grizzlies eat meat as part of their varied diet and can run up to 45 miles an hour, it usually other animals that must look out for them. Yet today these bears are a threatened species. Their sole enemies, humans, have pushed them out of their former territories, and the bears and their habitats now need protection. Here Gail Gibbons takes a closer look at these vulnerable predators, their biology, and their behavior. In an informative text with plenty of illustrations, diagrams, and maps, she reveals the intriguing lives of these impressive giants of the animal world. A Holiday House Book |
