Brown Bears

Sharp canines tear … Powerful paws swat … Meet the brown bear! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, this middle-grade nonfiction book treats researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of these muscular forest mammals. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the animals’ relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a Germanic folktale about the brown bear adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
