The great paws were digging into the igloo! The dogs had attacked the bear, but she fought them off, killing some with the powerful blows of her claws.
"Be ready, Anvik!" warned his mother.
The side of the igloo gave way! A dreadful struggle followed.

There was a chorus of barks and growls and screams.

The bear fought desperately.

The struggle and the falling snow partially wakened the father and son, but they were stupidly useless.

The dogs attacked the bear's back.
