Gobi bears may just be the most unusual bears on the planet: they're the only bears that live in a desert, they eat mainly plants, and they're extremely rare.

The Gobi desert where these bears live is a harsh landscape--extremely dry year round, brutally hot in the summer, and bitterly cold in the winter. The bears also face threats ranging from illegal gold miners to climate change.

But the bears do have helpers looking out for them. Scientists are using new technologies to learn about how these bears live. And conservation groups are working to make sure the bears have access to the food and water they need to survive.

Find out more about Gobi bears, which are considered a national treasure in Mongolia, and learn how people are working together to help this critically endangered species.

"Markle clearly and efficiently introduces a bear unfamiliar to most North American readers . . . Not a story of salvation but a work in progress, ably explained."--starred, Kirkus Reviews
