Polar bears are marine mammals, dependent upon the ice. That is where they live, hunt, breed, and rest. The scientific name is ursus maritimus. A common name is ice bear. Ice Bear Escapade, the seventh book in a series of Buddy the Globetrotter travel tales, is a sub-Arctic adventure into the fasting habitat of polar bears. Despite its adaptations, the very existence of this Arctic icon is threatened by global warming. Readers will learn why. Once again, Buddy's impulsive actions get him into trouble. This time he is totally unprepared to survive the harsh conditions when he gets lost on the tundra. Where will he find shelter and food? What happens when he comes face-to-face with the Arctic's top predators? Who are the caribou-eaters and what do they do with him?
