Arctic Tale

---

Beyond the world of the humans...

... an ancestral and remote Kingdom exists.

For most of us,

it is about an icy moor.

However, for the beings

that they know how to face astounding colds...

... it has always been an earthly paradise.

To the I cover of this protective ice,

a small life is beginning.

He/she has lived for weeks

in the darkness.

Observing the circle of light

on their head.

What will there be further on?

The curiosity takes it

to lean out for the first time to the light.

In the north, "Nanu" could call herself.

"Small it dares polar."

Their eyes discover

the snowy mantel of the external world.

It is a majestic place

without paragon in the Earth.

A vast Kingdom in the summit of the world.

A Kingdom of ice.

There is another small one that explores the world

for the first time.

She sees a blue world of water freeze.

Seela is a tusk cachorra,

of hardly hours of life...

... but as the osita, also

he/she desires to discover the world that surrounds it.

As all the newly born ones,

they have a lot to learn.

They are small of rtico...

... and their lives rock themselves

to the rhythm of the ice that rocks them.

But their world is changing.

And they will confront unheard challenges

for those of their species.

Their adventures begin today's day.

A POLAR STORY:

Everything begins one spring

in this mountain covered with snow.

The mother of Nanu got tired

of the hardship of their cave.

Six months he/she passed without to eat neither to drink

in the den where it gave birth to their breedings.

In the darkness of the winter,

he/she gave light to twins,

Nanu and their brother.

Today makes 28oC under zero.

An implacable cold.

Perfect for the polar bear.

Nanu is not sure

of abandoning the den.

But if our mother is one you/he/she dares polar

and he/she calls us, we need to make him/her I marry.

Nanu is vivacious.

Their brother, a little shy.

She is always willing to play.

Hole in one!

They wait for them more difficult days.

Here the survival is so demanding...

... that Nanu and their brother will need

three years of basic training.

But to wake up is already enough

for one day.

The training of these polar bears

it begins tomorrow.

From the mountain of snow,

there is almost 50 km of frozen ocean...

... a hard surface of ice.

A little further on, he/she extends

the world where Seela was born.

A labyrinth of floes

that it serves like a sure nursery.

Here a mom tusk can lavish him/her

to their sprout all the necessary care.

Thanks to their sensitive mustaches, them

they learn their faces by heart.

It is this way.

Those nice hair are not

only a detail of coquetry.

But there is another face

that Seela should learn how to recognize.

That of another female

that he/she hoped to hear those first screams.

She will act as their aunt

and burning protector...

... until Seela has age

of being been worth by itself.

It is a three year-old commitment...

... that he/she begins now.

Him first that he/she should learn it is

to leave the water.

If Seela doesn't achieve it,

he/she will cool down too much and he/she will drown.

While the aunt watches over

that there are not predators...

... the mom of Seela, with patience,

it shows him/her how it is made.

The problem is...

... that to make tumbles is

much more amusing.

The mom can guide

to their daughter of 35 kg.

But Seela has to learn

to lift all their weight without help.

They will be three very long years

with this railway tie.

The aunt should be being sorry

of the commitment that assumed.

In the mountain of snow, the brother

of Nanu it delays the beginning of a trip...

It still is not able to overcome that hole.

The mother of Nanu is not able to

to wait more. It is hungry.

Their only hope of finding food

it is to venture to the frozen sea...

... their very old hunt land.

And they give this way beginning

to the nomadic life of the polar bear...

... abandoning their homeland...

... bound for unknown adventures.

Soon they are united

a trip partner.

The mother of Nanu detects

an alarming sign...

... prints of the only animal

of the icy Kingdom that he/she can threaten her.

A polar bear.

She knows that, given the opportunity,

he is able to attack their puppies.

But the bear is

more interested in another thing.

Their smell identified something in the wind,

to kilometers of distance.

A newly born tusk.

At first sight,

Seela seems an easy prey.

The aunt perceives the danger.

The bear Preposition,

and the aunt runs to intercept it.

The bear is imposing, yes,

but it weighs half of the aunt...

... and it is not skilled in the water.

Finally he/she retires, for the time being.

Seela will never know

the fortunate thing that it was.

The female tusk doesn't have

many breedings.

Therefore, Seela is valuable

it doesn't only stop their mother and their aunt...

... but for the whole flock.

And it is not a group anyone,

but an united family.

Really united.

They live one above the other one,

without any type of privacy.

Cousins, grandmothers, grandparents.

And what family he/she doesn't have

an uncle that fear gives?

At little distance, it leaves to the surface

a distant cousin of the tusk.

The rung seal uses several holes

to breathe in the field of ice.

They are their private portals

between the sea and the air.

The inconvenience is

that he/she never knows what ferocious predator...

... it can surprise her in the surface.

It is not intimidated before a gull...

... but the rung seal is

the favorite plate of the polar bear.

And it is exactly

what wants to hunt the mother of Nanu...

... continued by Nanu, their brother...

... and their fox friend.

The rung seal has

a great ally against it dares her: the ice.

She can enter in hidden caves

under the hard surface of the snow...

... and to request so that it not dares her the

find.

Unfortunately for the seal...

... the mother of Nanu is able to penetrate

a meter of snow with their smell.

It is as playing to the hide-and-seek

with somebody that has vision of rays X.

Nanu soon will learn...

... that it is not so easy to find food

in the Kingdom of ice.

For each prey that catches,

they will be escaped 19.

But when we have babies

that to feed, we cannot surrender.

The first food in six months,

food for the mother...

... that he/she transforms into milk

for their puppies.

And in leftovers for the clever partner.

Contrary to the mother it dares,

the tusk doesn't usually hunt alone.

When one is hungry...

... the whole flock is hungry.

They are this way them.

This is the first hunt of Seela...

... and he/she will have resistance,

because he/she will be prolonged for three days.

They work as a team

in search of remembered landmarks.

One would think that an animal

as stout and skilled as a tusk...

... a ferocious being would hunt.

This is their battle field.

Which is the prey?

The clam.

Each tusk ingests

up to 4.000 clams for food.
