| Publisher Description: Acclaimed science author Sandra Markle offers a fascinating look at Gobi bears--the rarest bears on the planet. These adorable animals face threats ranging from illegal gold miners to climate change. Find out more about these bears, which are considered a national treasure in Mongolia, and learn what scientists are doing to help this critically endangered species. Markle clearly and efficiently introduces a bear unfamiliar to most North American readers . . . Not a story of salvation but a work in progress, ably explained.--starred, Kirkus Reviews |
