3
00:00:38,997 --> 00:00:40,957
Home.

4
00:00:45,837 --> 00:00:49,841
It's the place where childhood
and memory live together.

5
00:01:02,479 --> 00:01:05,356
But the home of my childhood is changing.

6
00:01:11,613 --> 00:01:14,616
The ice we depend on is melting away.

7
00:01:24,709 --> 00:01:28,421
My cub and I are in uncharted waters.

8
00:02:12,882 --> 00:02:17,345
I was born in an ice cave,
high in the mountains.

9
00:02:35,363 --> 00:02:40,493
But the frozen ocean, the sea ice,
was our home.

10
00:02:50,211 --> 00:02:52,755
Here is where my earliest memories are.

11
00:02:54,174 --> 00:02:55,884
Playing with my best friend,

12
00:02:56,593 --> 00:02:58,469
my twin brother.

13
00:03:15,528 --> 00:03:18,364
And she was never far from us.

14
00:03:20,617 --> 00:03:22,118
Our protector.

15
00:03:23,411 --> 00:03:24,704
Our mother.

16
00:03:50,146 --> 00:03:53,775
I was stronger than my brother.
More curious.

17
00:03:56,194 --> 00:03:58,947
But he was the independent one.

18
00:04:00,156 --> 00:04:02,158
I always followed Mom's lead.

19
00:04:08,331 --> 00:04:11,793
And there was a whole world
she wanted to show us.

20
00:04:42,782 --> 00:04:45,243
There was so much to learn here.

21
00:04:50,832 --> 00:04:52,542
She was our only teacher.

22
00:04:56,921 --> 00:04:59,340
I copied everything she did.

23
00:05:41,007 --> 00:05:43,926
I didn't know it, but we were hunting...

24
00:05:46,012 --> 00:05:47,096
for something.

25
00:05:58,941 --> 00:06:00,485
For a smell.

26
00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:06,032
-A smell under the ice.

27
00:06:24,092 --> 00:06:26,844
Whatever it was, it smelled good.

28
00:06:37,855 --> 00:06:40,691
My brother was ready to attack, too...

29
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,363
-Me, usually.

30
00:06:52,954 --> 00:06:55,915
Mom just kept pounding through the ice.

31
00:06:57,291 --> 00:06:59,043
I wanted to help her, but...

32
00:07:00,253 --> 00:07:01,671
I was busy.

33
00:07:11,013 --> 00:07:15,101
Then suddenly,
the whole thing became clear.

34
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:21,899
We were seal hunting.

35
00:07:25,194 --> 00:07:27,780
Well, Mom was seal hunting.

36
00:07:46,966 --> 00:07:48,926
She was our hero.

37
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:52,263
We would've followed her anywhere.

38
00:07:58,686 --> 00:08:00,521
And we needed to.

39
00:08:18,873 --> 00:08:24,670
Male bears spend all winter roaming
the ice, and are very, very hungry.

40
00:08:32,678 --> 00:08:35,181
My brother and I would make an easy meal.

41
00:08:38,809 --> 00:08:43,439
So Mom led us to the ice edge,
to the open ocean.

42
00:08:49,028 --> 00:08:51,656
The problem was,
we didn't know how to swim.

43
00:08:53,991 --> 00:08:56,619
We'd never even been in the water before.

44
00:09:06,504 --> 00:09:08,256
It was freezing.

45
00:09:09,799 --> 00:09:13,636
And the only dry land in sight was Mom.

46
00:09:30,403 --> 00:09:33,364
She knew we weren't going to learn
to swim like this.

47
00:09:44,792 --> 00:09:47,670
And there was good reason
to keep paddling.

48
00:10:01,642 --> 00:10:07,648
Finally, a place to rest... I thought.

49
00:10:09,650 --> 00:10:11,485
And I was wrong.

50
00:10:23,581 --> 00:10:29,503
When my brother and I could swim no more,
she led us ashore.

51
00:10:32,757 --> 00:10:37,011
I've never been happier to be bitten
and tugged by the scruff of the neck.

52
00:10:51,984 --> 00:10:53,402
We were safe.

53
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:57,156
Now we could rest.

54
00:11:07,667 --> 00:11:11,712
Every spring,
as the sun climbs higher in the sky,

55
00:11:12,171 --> 00:11:15,049
the days become longer and warmer.

56
00:11:35,611 --> 00:11:39,490
Our world of solid ice
starts to break apart.

57
00:11:44,370 --> 00:11:47,707
I learned this was the natural way
of things.

58
00:11:53,170 --> 00:11:58,467
But this new, broken, shifting ground
was hard to get used to.

59
00:12:03,889 --> 00:12:06,475
Keeping up with Mom was not easy.

60
00:12:20,489 --> 00:12:25,077
One small step for her
was a giant leap for us.

61
00:12:36,756 --> 00:12:43,262
And now, for the first time, she would
leave my brother and me on our own.

62
00:12:50,394 --> 00:12:52,146
She had a new mission.

63
00:12:58,861 --> 00:13:05,493
I watched her as she silently disappeared,
becoming one with the ice floes.

64
00:13:07,578 --> 00:13:09,288
Master of the stalk.

65
00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:24,011
Mom knew, from experience,
her only chance at grabbing a seal

66
00:13:24,136 --> 00:13:26,764
was when it was up on an ice floe.

67
00:13:29,850 --> 00:13:33,229
As soon as it was in the water,
she wouldn't be able to catch it.

68
00:16:35,703 --> 00:16:37,413
There wasn't much for us to do.

69
00:16:38,914 --> 00:16:41,959
We just waited for her to return.

70
00:16:56,223 --> 00:17:00,728
But she didn't return.
She kept on hunting.

71
00:18:33,237 --> 00:18:35,989
Mom caught many seals that first summer.

72
00:18:37,032 --> 00:18:40,285
We were well fed and wanted for nothing.

73
00:19:03,183 --> 00:19:08,981
Back then, life on our frozen
ocean home felt secure.

74
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:32,212
Today, the sea ice we once called home
is disappearing.

75
00:19:46,852 --> 00:19:49,354
Seals need the sea ice to breed.

76
00:19:59,990 --> 00:20:01,992
We need seals to hunt.

77
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:14,838
We are ice bears.

78
00:20:21,303 --> 00:20:23,889
How are we to survive without ice?

79
00:20:41,031 --> 00:20:45,035
Our mother kept us safe and warm
that first long winter.

80
00:20:48,580 --> 00:20:51,416
Other than the lights
that danced in the sky,

81
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:55,379
it was total darkness
for half of the year.

82
00:21:04,930 --> 00:21:07,266
I thought the sun had gone forever.

83
00:21:09,393 --> 00:21:12,187
I remember the day it finally reappeared.

84
00:21:52,019 --> 00:21:55,230
My brother and I loved the sunshine.

85
00:21:59,609 --> 00:22:01,778
We could go and explore again.

86
00:22:08,327 --> 00:22:11,246
But Mom was going to put
all that energy to use.

87
00:22:12,289 --> 00:22:14,875
She had a busy spring planned for us.

88
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:28,680
Spring is when we need to catch nearly all
our food for the entire year...

89
00:22:29,473 --> 00:22:30,724
and quickly.

90
00:22:32,225 --> 00:22:37,189
Soon, most of the sea ice will disappear,
and with it, the seals.

91
00:22:52,245 --> 00:22:55,165
This year, Mom would expect a lot from us.

92
00:22:56,750 --> 00:23:00,712
She wanted us to really understand
seal hunting.

93
00:23:04,383 --> 00:23:07,803
No more spectating in between
wrestling matches.

94
00:23:37,999 --> 00:23:41,962
I also learned to never drop my guard.

95
00:24:00,939 --> 00:24:04,067
Males were an ever-present threat.

96
00:24:06,945 --> 00:24:10,907
And this one caught us
completely by surprise.

97
00:24:22,169 --> 00:24:26,673
He was hungry, determined, and relentless.

98
00:24:42,898 --> 00:24:45,984
There is no safe distance
from a male ice bear.

99
00:24:48,028 --> 00:24:50,447
But there is safe ice.

100
00:24:51,948 --> 00:24:54,326
And Mom knew how to find it.

101
00:24:57,954 --> 00:25:02,459
She followed the cracks that led
to the edge of the sea ice.

102
00:25:06,922 --> 00:25:11,051
It was so thin here, a large male bear
would fall right through.

103
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:21,853
Most importantly, for my brother and me,

104
00:25:23,563 --> 00:25:25,190
we could play together.

105
00:25:36,826 --> 00:25:41,331
In those days, every moment out on
the sea ice taught us new lessons.

106
00:25:45,669 --> 00:25:47,629
About the different kinds of ice,

107
00:25:51,258 --> 00:25:52,926
the different thicknesses,

108
00:25:54,469 --> 00:25:58,139
how to plan the perfect belly-flop attack.

109
00:26:29,254 --> 00:26:32,757
It was an afternoon of pure relaxation.

110
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,432
Plus, some extra seal-hunting practice
for my brother.

111
00:27:04,247 --> 00:27:07,208
A quick roll in the snow to dry our fur...

112
00:27:10,462 --> 00:27:12,213
And we were on the move again.

113
00:27:27,228 --> 00:27:29,981
We did grow a lot more confident
that spring.

114
00:27:37,864 --> 00:27:41,451
But Mom was still the center of our world.

115
00:28:36,214 --> 00:28:39,592
Today, there is little time for play.

116
00:28:47,934 --> 00:28:51,104
All of our energy is spent
searching for food.

117
00:29:04,242 --> 00:29:08,037
I want to teach my daughter
where to find seals.

118
00:29:09,497 --> 00:29:14,377
But the old places I was shown
are harder and harder to find.

119
00:29:40,904 --> 00:29:45,950
When summer came around again, the ice
seemed different than the year before.

120
00:29:51,831 --> 00:29:55,668
It felt hotter. And the melt came earlier.

121
00:30:06,179 --> 00:30:10,558
But the ice break-up allowed
fresh prey into our home.

122
00:30:11,643 --> 00:30:14,562
And these were not the seals
we'd come to know.

123
00:30:20,944 --> 00:30:22,529
Beluga whales.

124
00:30:28,993 --> 00:30:32,038
I had never seen a beluga whale before.

125
00:30:40,171 --> 00:30:41,381
Mom had, though.

126
00:30:44,634 --> 00:30:47,929
And she was set on
bringing one home for dinner.

127
00:31:03,570 --> 00:31:06,781
Catching prey in the water
is incredibly hard.

128
00:31:14,455 --> 00:31:19,377
But she was persistent. We needed to eat.

129
00:32:03,963 --> 00:32:07,967
Finally, one swam straight at her.

130
00:32:27,612 --> 00:32:29,530
It got away.

131
00:32:30,823 --> 00:32:36,037
But she was teaching us every chance
at food was worth taking.

132
00:32:48,675 --> 00:32:52,345
In summer,
the sun never sets for half the year.

133
00:33:00,019 --> 00:33:04,691
The unending daylight
brings a great wave of new life.

134
00:33:36,055 --> 00:33:40,309
Everyone rushes to raise their families
in the warm summer sun.

135
00:34:07,211 --> 00:34:12,300
Even with all this new life, summer is
always a season of hardship for us.

136
00:34:14,093 --> 00:34:16,846
You needed to take every opportunity.

137
00:34:24,812 --> 00:34:28,191
The harbor seals were so tempting.

138
00:34:31,819 --> 00:34:35,281
But Mom had no ice floes
to help her hunt now.

139
00:34:37,408 --> 00:34:39,243
She had to improvise.

140
00:34:49,170 --> 00:34:55,426
I studied her every move
as she stalked them silently.

141
00:35:10,441 --> 00:35:12,318
But once her cover was blown,

142
00:35:13,069 --> 00:35:18,699
it became a game of chase that
we were never going to win.

143
00:35:32,588 --> 00:35:35,049
They swam rings around us.

144
00:36:06,289 --> 00:36:13,212
But Mom somehow was always able to pull
some food out of nowhere.

145
00:36:19,302 --> 00:36:21,304
Seaweed for dinner.

146
00:36:22,471 --> 00:36:25,391
We hated seaweed for dinner.

147
00:36:28,019 --> 00:36:29,979
Especially my brother.

148
00:36:31,314 --> 00:36:36,527
He'd rather go without dinner
than eat seaweed.

149
00:36:46,370 --> 00:36:50,541
As summer dragged on,
food became even more scarce.

150
00:36:51,709 --> 00:36:55,504
It was there,
but it was often very hard to reach.

151
00:36:59,342 --> 00:37:02,637
Birds came to the cliffs every summer
to have their chicks.

152
00:37:06,515 --> 00:37:10,436
They had to nest wherever they could,
to be safe from predators.

153
00:37:22,907 --> 00:37:25,451
Every square inch was precious.

154
00:37:38,506 --> 00:37:42,051
We ice bears will climb
almost anything for food,

155
00:37:42,551 --> 00:37:45,137
and Mom was ready to show us how.

156
00:37:48,599 --> 00:37:51,602
But we weren't the only hungry ones there.

157
00:37:55,064 --> 00:37:58,067
She'd been outdone
by yet another male bear.

158
00:38:11,330 --> 00:38:14,041
The climb was dangerous enough.

159
00:38:14,125 --> 00:38:16,836
Mom wasn't going to attempt it
with him up there.

160
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,064
The cliffs were crumbling
beneath his feet.

161
00:38:51,078 --> 00:38:58,002
Trying to snatch prey that flies on
a dangerous rock face is not an option.

162
00:39:09,889 --> 00:39:12,558
He had to settle for eggs or chicks.

163
00:39:37,375 --> 00:39:42,296
Far below, my brother managed
to catch us a much better meal.

164
00:39:45,132 --> 00:39:47,051
It was our little victory.

165
00:39:59,980 --> 00:40:01,690
Summer was often like this.

166
00:40:02,650 --> 00:40:05,986
Ice bears forced to extremes by hunger.

167
00:40:11,242 --> 00:40:12,868
All for a tiny bite.

168
00:40:27,133 --> 00:40:30,344
All summer ever provided was scraps.

169
00:40:31,137 --> 00:40:34,181
Those who took the risks
were the ones who ate.

170
00:40:40,729 --> 00:40:46,944
The land could provide food,
just not for us. Not this time.

171
00:41:06,422 --> 00:41:09,967
Today, the summers are getting
longer and longer.

172
00:41:25,357 --> 00:41:30,779
What I learned about finding small scraps
in hard times has kept us alive.

173
00:41:47,421 --> 00:41:50,925
But a young ice bear needs to do more
than just survive.

174
00:41:53,928 --> 00:41:55,221
She needs to grow.

175
00:42:20,079 --> 00:42:22,998
I remember, in autumn of that second year,

176
00:42:23,999 --> 00:42:26,919
we had an incredible discovery.

177
00:42:37,346 --> 00:42:40,683
A dead whale washed up on the shore.

178
00:42:49,233 --> 00:42:52,570
This would keep us fed
for a very long time.

179
00:43:02,705 --> 00:43:06,750
But I quickly realized this was not
going to be an easy meal.

180
00:43:09,086 --> 00:43:11,755
Getting through the thick skin
was nearly impossible.

181
00:43:20,222 --> 00:43:24,977
Underneath was so much rich blubber.
I could smell it.

182
00:43:29,064 --> 00:43:31,984
But the trick was getting to it.

183
00:43:40,868 --> 00:43:45,706
Just as we were making some progress,
another male.

184
00:43:46,373 --> 00:43:49,627
Come to ruin our good fortune, again.

185
00:43:53,964 --> 00:43:56,133
It was best to keep our distance.

186
00:44:11,857 --> 00:44:15,861
At least he would be more interested
in the whale than us.

187
00:44:51,730 --> 00:44:53,107
I was so jealous,

188
00:44:53,524 --> 00:44:57,403
watching as he broke through the skin
with his more powerful jaws.

189
00:45:04,243 --> 00:45:09,581
Mom decided this opportunity
was too great to abandon.

190
00:45:12,209 --> 00:45:14,586
Good things come to those who wait.

191
00:45:29,893 --> 00:45:33,689
In the days that followed,
more and more bears arrived,

192
00:45:34,064 --> 00:45:37,025
lured by the smell of the delicious feast.

193
00:45:44,950 --> 00:45:50,706
Mom wasn't letting me anywhere close,
until they were all well fed.

194
00:45:55,419 --> 00:45:59,298
It didn't take long for all those jaws
to tear through the skin

195
00:45:59,381 --> 00:46:03,093
and gorge on the juicy goodness inside.

196
00:46:14,271 --> 00:46:17,065
I so wanted in on that.

197
00:46:32,498 --> 00:46:33,957
Once they'd had their fill,

198
00:46:34,374 --> 00:46:37,753
they all washed off their sloppy meal
with a nice swim.

199
00:46:46,887 --> 00:46:51,600
I had never seen so many ice bears
together in one place.

200
00:46:56,772 --> 00:47:03,278
In that moment, with so much food
to go around, there was no competition.

201
00:47:04,530 --> 00:47:07,616
So they simply reveled
in each other's company.

202
00:47:14,915 --> 00:47:19,628
Finally, when even the biggest of them
was stuffed completely,

203
00:47:20,420 --> 00:47:22,005
I took my turn.

204
00:47:25,676 --> 00:47:27,678
Way better than seaweed.

205
00:47:37,271 --> 00:47:39,231
After all we'd been through,

206
00:47:42,818 --> 00:47:46,071
all the hunger and hardship,

207
00:47:48,282 --> 00:47:54,079
I can still remember
the three of us just playing.

208
00:48:01,670 --> 00:48:04,840
It was the best day of my life.

209
00:49:05,108 --> 00:49:08,695
Our second winter was much worse
than our first.

210
00:49:17,079 --> 00:49:19,539
The power of those storms...

211
00:49:21,124 --> 00:49:23,001
they were something totally new.

212
00:49:49,945 --> 00:49:54,658
When spring arrived,
there were only two of us.

213
00:50:03,917 --> 00:50:06,044
The winter had taken my brother.

214
00:50:40,996 --> 00:50:44,916
From then on, it was just Mom and me.

215
00:51:19,618 --> 00:51:26,166
Fire and ice have always been enemies.
But now, fire is winning.

216
00:51:34,966 --> 00:51:38,553
Even the land is beginning to melt
beneath our feet.

217
00:51:49,231 --> 00:51:53,527
The old routes through our home
are becoming impassable.

218
00:52:01,952 --> 00:52:04,246
This is not the summer I knew.

219
00:52:05,664 --> 00:52:09,042
This is some other season.

220
00:52:36,862 --> 00:52:40,574
I remember the third summer
of my childhood was the warmest.

221
00:52:48,123 --> 00:52:50,167
The sea ice melted away early.

222
00:52:50,750 --> 00:52:53,545
And the seals were almost
impossible to find.

223
00:53:02,304 --> 00:53:07,225
So Mom led me to another of her
special places to find food.

224
00:53:13,148 --> 00:53:17,360
The tip of an island,
where a new type of prey I'd never seen

225
00:53:17,444 --> 00:53:19,154
was waiting for us.

226
00:53:22,032 --> 00:53:23,325
Walrus.

227
00:53:32,709 --> 00:53:37,505
I was fascinated by these strange
creatures with the strange teeth.

228
00:53:46,806 --> 00:53:49,768
Or maybe it was "frightened."
I can't remember.

229
00:54:01,947 --> 00:54:04,658
But Mom had a reason for bringing me here.

230
00:54:05,700 --> 00:54:09,788
It was time for me
to try my hand at hunting.

231
00:54:15,877 --> 00:54:19,923
I tried to decide which one would make
the easiest target.

232
00:54:27,097 --> 00:54:30,016
I decided none of them.

233
00:54:34,646 --> 00:54:38,858
Mom went up to investigate the walrus
gathered at the top of the beach.

234
00:54:42,862 --> 00:54:46,408
Adults, all tightly packed together.

235
00:54:49,202 --> 00:54:51,496
Too many, and too big to handle.

236
00:55:07,387 --> 00:55:10,932
When she came back down to the water
to see how I was progressing,

237
00:55:11,016 --> 00:55:13,518
I had almost worked out a plan.

238
00:55:19,232 --> 00:55:23,361
Mother walrus, holding their newborn
pups with their flippers.

239
00:55:26,323 --> 00:55:29,284
The perfect-sized prey for us.

240
00:55:34,331 --> 00:55:38,752
Just swimming up and stealing them
from their mothers in the water

241
00:55:38,835 --> 00:55:40,545
was not going to happen.

242
00:55:45,300 --> 00:55:50,430
But maybe there would be some pups hiding
among the adults on the beach.

243
00:56:09,366 --> 00:56:13,661
There were, tucked in around
the edge of the huddle.

244
00:56:19,042 --> 00:56:20,627
I took up my position.

245
00:56:23,088 --> 00:56:25,006
They didn't seem to care.

246
00:56:27,467 --> 00:56:31,262
It wasn't until Mom moved in
and created panic

247
00:56:31,346 --> 00:56:33,765
that they started moving into the water.

248
00:56:54,285 --> 00:56:55,453
It worked.

249
00:56:56,162 --> 00:56:59,040
A pup, left behind by a panicked mother.

250
00:57:23,898 --> 00:57:27,152
It was the best meal we'd had in ages.

251
00:57:28,945 --> 00:57:32,031
And I was finally taking
a bigger role in hunting.

252
00:57:48,798 --> 00:57:52,594
Just as winter was setting in
that third year,

253
00:57:52,677 --> 00:57:54,637
my life changed forever.

254
00:58:05,190 --> 00:58:09,027
Mom knew it was time for me
to make my own way.

255
00:58:14,699 --> 00:58:17,285
She had taught me everything she could.

256
00:58:17,911 --> 00:58:19,996
So, she let me go.

257
00:58:38,681 --> 00:58:43,353
Everything I'd learned from her,
I would now have to attempt on my own.

258
00:59:02,413 --> 00:59:04,082
It was frightening.

259
00:59:05,124 --> 00:59:08,503
The world had never seemed
so vast and lonely.

260
00:59:36,823 --> 00:59:40,243
I didn't know if I could survive
without her.

261
01:00:10,565 --> 01:00:13,860
I wandered alone for the next three years.

262
01:00:18,906 --> 01:00:22,869
I did not encounter another ice bear
in all that time.

263
01:01:02,617 --> 01:01:04,452
I wasn't really alone, though.

264
01:01:08,456 --> 01:01:09,832
She was with me.

265
01:01:17,090 --> 01:01:19,842
She was a part of every experience,

266
01:01:21,761 --> 01:01:23,221
every decision,

267
01:01:26,724 --> 01:01:28,017
every journey.

268
01:01:33,606 --> 01:01:36,734
A part of the bear that I had become.

269
01:01:42,782 --> 01:01:47,995
Her knowledge is what got me through
those three long, grueling winters.

270
01:02:23,823 --> 01:02:28,953
And then that spring,
something extraordinary happened.

271
01:02:38,254 --> 01:02:40,006
I met another ice bear.

272
01:02:46,095 --> 01:02:50,266
My experience with male bears
made me very cautious.

273
01:02:51,350 --> 01:02:53,936
But that old fear quickly vanished.

274
01:02:56,439 --> 01:02:58,024
He was friendly.

275
01:03:04,405 --> 01:03:08,910
We were the same age and had both
been on our own for so long.

276
01:03:09,911 --> 01:03:13,664
We just played together
like carefree cubs the whole day.

277
01:03:23,132 --> 01:03:25,134
We ran off to my favorite spot.

278
01:03:28,888 --> 01:03:32,558
The ice edge,
where I used to play with my brother.

279
01:05:18,706 --> 01:05:24,879
That day, I realized
not all male bears had to be feared.

280
01:06:01,707 --> 01:06:05,127
Just as suddenly as he'd arrived,
he was on his way again.

281
01:06:08,714 --> 01:06:12,802
We were just two young bears
who met one day

282
01:06:12,885 --> 01:06:15,054
in the middle of the boundless ice.

283
01:06:29,944 --> 01:06:35,157
Later that spring, my newfound confidence
would be truly tested.

284
01:06:45,835 --> 01:06:50,631
A massive, full-grown male,
more than twice my size.

285
01:07:05,813 --> 01:07:07,606
He followed my scent,

286
01:07:08,899 --> 01:07:11,527
and tracked my footsteps in the snow.

287
01:07:51,233 --> 01:07:54,320
For days, he shadowed my every move.

288
01:08:12,838 --> 01:08:16,467
I had been running from male bears
my whole life.

289
01:08:18,803 --> 01:08:22,306
But something about this was different.

290
01:08:25,017 --> 01:08:26,727
I felt a strength.

291
01:08:33,526 --> 01:08:35,194
I wasn't scared.

292
01:09:13,691 --> 01:09:18,320
I soon understood I was being courted.

293
01:09:52,521 --> 01:09:55,399
He stayed by my side for many days.

294
01:09:56,233 --> 01:09:59,653
Until finally, I felt the time was right.

295
01:10:05,701 --> 01:10:09,788
I wanted no trouble from
any interfering ice bears,

296
01:10:09,872 --> 01:10:15,252
so I led him far away from the sea ice,
into the mountains.

297
01:10:26,472 --> 01:10:29,266
It was a long, tiring trek,

298
01:10:29,558 --> 01:10:33,437
and we had to stop to rest
before we reached the summit.

299
01:10:44,573 --> 01:10:46,533
We fell asleep together.

300
01:10:51,705 --> 01:10:54,792
I knew I could trust him.

301
01:11:12,226 --> 01:11:17,022
Above the clouds, not far from
the very cave where I was born,

302
01:11:18,190 --> 01:11:22,319
he would help provide me
with the only thing I truly desired

303
01:11:22,444 --> 01:11:24,488
since parting with my family.

304
01:11:25,698 --> 01:11:28,284
A family of my own.

305
01:11:47,344 --> 01:11:49,221
I would never see him again.

306
01:11:53,225 --> 01:11:56,729
But the next spring, my wish came true.

307
01:11:58,397 --> 01:12:00,316
I had a cub of my own.

308
01:12:14,163 --> 01:12:15,289
Just one.

309
01:12:15,956 --> 01:12:18,250
But that made her all the more special.

310
01:12:49,198 --> 01:12:51,909
She so reminded me of my brother.

311
01:13:39,790 --> 01:13:44,378
Nursing my own cub,
looking back on my childhood,

312
01:13:45,295 --> 01:13:49,049
I felt I had come full circle.

313
01:13:49,174 --> 01:13:55,013
And that despite all the challenges,
I had succeeded.

314
01:13:57,182 --> 01:13:59,643
My mother had succeeded.

315
01:14:39,766 --> 01:14:43,187
We ice bears are great survivors.

316
01:15:03,874 --> 01:15:07,336
We have always mastered
the changes we have faced.

317
01:15:21,391 --> 01:15:26,813
We have done so by carrying the knowledge
of those who've gone before.

318
01:15:36,949 --> 01:15:38,450
Where to find ice.

319
01:15:44,623 --> 01:15:46,500
How to find food.

320
01:15:54,591 --> 01:15:58,387
How to adapt to an evolving landscape.

321
01:16:18,031 --> 01:16:22,077
But I am reaching the limits
of what I know about this world.

322
01:16:31,211 --> 01:16:36,049
These new changes seem to me
almost insurmountable.

323
01:17:00,073 --> 01:17:05,579
My daughter will learn what it takes
to be a great ice bear.

324
01:17:21,345 --> 01:17:23,305
She will endure.

325
01:17:37,819 --> 01:17:41,573
But what kind of world will she call home?
