CD-ROM
Wildlife of the Deep Antarctic
Antarctic Interactive Collection, Volume 1
 Imagine yourself in a world that is covered with ice, where only the hardiest creatures can withstand the bitter cold and hurricane-force winds. Imagine yourself standing at the edge of a breathing hole in the frozen surface of the sea as giant killer whales rise out of the water, only inches away.
Travel with us to this world, the world of McMurdo Sound in Antarctica’s Ross Sea, where you’ll meet five of the most southerly naturally occurring animals on Earth. You’ll learn about them through fact sheets, narrated text, stunning photographs, and never-before-seen videos, including rare footage of killer whales and penguins underwater. You will even hear the animals in their own voices--the raucous mating call of adelie penguins, the majestic trumpet of the emperor penguin, and the haunting, otherworldly cries of weddell seals.
 Whether you’re interested in Antarctica or just in wildlife, this volume is both a valuable educational tool and an essential addition to your CD collection.
