5 Bears  – A look at the amazing world of bears

5 Bears provides readers with fascinating facts and figures about bear biology, behaviour and the threats bears face, both in captivity and in the wild. It profiles five real bears that show what the lives of many bears are like. Winnie, the Canadian black bear that led to the story Winnie the Pooh, and Wojtek, the soldier bear who became a war hero. You’ll also meet Yupi the polar bear who lived her life in a zoo in Mexico, Jasper who was rescued from a bear farm in China, and Vince who now lives at a sanctuary in the United States.

5 Bears helps set the record straight about bears and shows that bears in the wild and in captivity deserve our respect and compassion. It also urges everyone, both young and old, to help protect bears, to ensure they continue to have a place in the wild areas of the world.
