In class response for Artic Tale




Artic Tale, a very inspirational and information tape was veiwed today in class. As the movie started the importance was unclear to me , but as the video proceded I realized many things.Polar bears and Walrusses were a big focus along with theri needs for their survival and their surroundings, which was in the Artic. The Artic is a very cold area where its mainly snow and ice also winds blow fiercly, making the degrees drop to far below zero.BRRR! There were many shocking details about both types of animals that introduced throughout the tape. One being that Walrusses canot stay in water for long periods of tiem or else they will die, due to the temperature of teh water. In addition I learned that Mother polar bears abondon their children a two years of age becuase the child is thougtht to be an adult at that time! Life was definatley not easy for either type of mammal. They are a little like us humans,where the adults make sacrifices for the young, inorder to keep them away from danger! This movie was touching and left me with important information!
