Browse Full-length Non-member TitlesPolar bears are living on borrowed time. They are the descendants of grizzlies, long ago evolved to live and hunt on the frozen ice of the Arctic, eating a specialized diet of seal meat. But the winters have become increasingly warmer, the ice is disappearing, and raising a family becomes a much more difficult proposition when hunting time is short and food is scarce. Academy Award-winner F. Murray Abraham narrates.
