Description

This series looks in detail at our oceans and at the fascinating creatures that live in, above and below the waves. Starting with a look at the forces that shape and affect our oceans, the series moves forward to look at ocean wildlife in different parts of the world, how some animals make huge journeys across them and which creatures live in the ocean depths. It finishes by taking a look at people and the sea, studying famous shipwrecks and ocean voyages. Creatures of the Icy Seas looks at the amazing mammals, fish and birds that survive in polar seas. From polar bears on the Arctic Sea ice, to penguins in Antarctica, this book examines how wildlife adapts to such harsh, freezing conditions.
