To Seela it will take him/her years to dominate the art

of eating clams like his.

Olisquearlas with the mustaches...

... to open them with a snort

and to suck them the meat.

But first are to catch

to the unfortunate ones!

In the chaos, some neighbors escape.

Some, until they fly.

The flock never taking

all the clams.

And those that are,

they will repopulate the channel of clams...

... for when the flock returns,

in five years.

After a banquet of clams

that it lasts three days...

... the tendency of the flock to make

everything together extends to the digestion.

Somebody makes a noise to play...

... and a moment later...

For the end of the spring...

... the family of Nanu and others of the Kingdom

of ice they have also eaten a lot.

Their stomachs are full

thanks to the seal hunt.

In rtico, the times of abundance

they are celebration reason.

According to the ancestral rhythm of the North...

... the days of abundance

for Nanu and their family...

... they put an end to the arrival of the summer.

It is time of fast for the bears...

... whose hunt lands open up

in a warm brief season.

The sun shines the 24 hours,

it penetrates the dark waters...

... and he/she has a magic effect.

An explosion of life attracts to the North

to marine hungry beings.

Always...

... the summer it has reduced the fields

of ice during a short period.

But the cold returns with the autumn...

... the ice at once claims the coast

and then it grows slowly toward the sea.

Clever to put an end

to their summery fast...

Nanu and their family wait

that they reappear their hunt lands...

... on the frozen sea...

... while they practice

for the hunt of coming seal.

Their mom teaches them the technique.

And also something more.

It provokes Nanu, he/she attempts

to inculcate him/her spirit strength.

Resistance in the face of the adversity.

Apparently,

Nanu has the adapted character.

Concentration misses its brother.

Finally, a sign.

The darkest days they announce

the return of the winter...

... and, with him, that of a frozen sea

and solid that will allow them to hunt.

I joust on time.

Nanu and their family are hungry.

However,

this year something has changed.

Hardness misses ice.

Mother dares she had never seen

a similar winter.

They will have to return and to await

to that the ice becomes denser.

And until then,

they will continue hungry.

The family of Seela also search

ice solid that can sustain them.

They lapse weeks.

That that the animals of the Kingdom of ice

they don't know...

... it is that their old style

of survival he/she will enter in crisis.

The sea, and the air on this,

they are warmer than in the past.

The ice struggles be formed again.

At the end, the ice returns here...

... but three months later.

Everything seems to return to the normality

in the Kingdom of ice.

But there has been very little snow

to build a paridera...

... so the puppy of rung seal

it is defenseless on the ice...

... to their worst enemy's full view.

It is also a challenge

for the mother of Nanu...

... that he/she specializes

in hunting hidden preys.

How it can surprise

to a seal that you see it come closer?

Their attack is a true failure.

Nanu reminds to its mom

how it is made.

"Yes, thank you for the explanation, daughter!"

Mother dares she knows

that the birds go to the food...

... so they follow the birds.

Here close there is food.

But the only way of arriving is

to pass before their owner's noses...

... a bear.

Hounded by the hunger,

they run a tremendous risk.

They escape, but they are hungrier.

And now he/she shows up a new danger.

An arctic tempest.

The storm winds blow

with an extraordinary fury...

... and they charge with force against the

coast, before protected by ice solid.

The flock goes into in the sea

to support the storm.

But in the sea they should fight

for not separating...

... with waves of 4,5 meters.

A strong wave separates Seela

of the other ones.

Their mother and their aunt look for it

with desperation...

... but she doesn't appear for any side.

In the earth,

the low temperature at 40oC under zero.

The wind reaches the 130 kms per hour.

The storm leaves its sequels.

The brother bear is weak.

For the first time in their life,

Nanu doesn't see it after her.

Their mother insists him/her that I/you/he/she continues.

He tries to obey...

... but the hunger left it without forces.

Nanu and their mother curl up

with him to share their heat.

But with running of the hours,

he weakens more and more.

And then he/she dies.

Nanu and their mother remain

to their side.

However,

in some moment they should continue.

In the sea, the mom and the aunt

they continue looking for Seela.

Beyond their field of vision...

... she is dying.

Not he/she will be able to resist much more.

Their force goes disappearing...

... together with the hopes of the flock

of finding it.

But their mom and their aunt don't surrender.

They follow a strong current

that it takes them farther than before...

... and they are able this way to find

to who was lost forever.

A small one that knew how to survive...

... awaiting two o'clock mature

that they always arrive to their rescue.

Two springs pass

in the Kingdom of ice...

... and in both, it is heard

a strange music under the ice.

In their second year of life

and already with small eyeteeth,

Seela has begun to pay attention

to those strange sounds.

They are songs of tusk love,

taken place by young males...

... of such a complex structure

that it takes them years to perfect.

Until they deserve to be listened...

... the ladies have better things

that to make with their time.

Nanu has also grown.

He/she is two years old,

but it continues depending on their mother.

However, one morning

their mother stays distant.

The new situation forces its mother...

... to make something before the normal thing.

Nanu goes in its mother's look

something that had never seen.

Just by looking at it, he/she understands

that their life meetings has arrived to its end.

Mother dares she no longer can

to feed both.

In order to survive,

it should move away Nanu of their side.

This separation is the most difficult trance

that Nanu has happened.

But it is also difficult for their mother.

She cannot continue protecting

to their breeding...

... not even to know how he/she goes him/her.

Don't maybe see never it again.

This way, with hardly two years,

Nanu goes aboard in a solitary life.

Good, not so solitary.

Before that waited...

... the spring warmth

rtico wraps.

The hunt lands are flooded.

Here there are not seals.

For that reason,

Nanu leaves the ice that he/she knows behind...

... with the hope of finding

something that to eat.

What is.

The you plow you of pick width they are

a novelty for her.

They will only be bites for her...

... but given the circumstances,

it is worthwhile to prove them.

Nevertheless,
