The closer they got, the more questions started running through their minds. Now that they were getting really close to the iceberg they realized they had no idea what they were actually going to do when they got there. Additionally, they had to figure out how to get home, which was going to be a feat in and of itself, because they had no idea where they were.
In some parts of the sea, the ice was getting really thick. This was a sign that meant they could not linger in that spot for long. They also had to be mindful of daylight and get home before dark.
Lurking Danger
Luckily, Mallory was a skilled sailor, she had to drive extra careful to avoid hitting icebergs and chunks of ice floating in the sea. The wind was picking up and getting stronger by the minute. The boat was moving all over the place. She had to carefully direct it in the right direction towards the iceberg.
Unfortunately for both the fisherman and the animal, the conditions were getting worse. The waves were picking up, and the iceberg was beginning to move. This was not a good sign. The boat was in danger, and the animal was in danger. They had to get there fast.
Nearly There
The fishermen had a lot to worry about. The weather was getting worse, and they were getting anxious that the animal was going to get scared and jump into the water. There was also the possibility that the animal would accidentally fall right into the boat. Both of these scenarios were too scary to think about. And they were getting really stressed out.
They were getting even more cautious while maneuvering the boat to the iceberg. They had to navigate the situation and figure out how to get close enough to the iceberg to see exactly what kind of animal this was and figure out what to do from there.
Racing With Time
The iceberg that was home to this mysterious animal begun to move very fast. The fisherman quickly decided they had to keep up with the iceberg and follow it. They knew that if they were patient, they would be able to reach it.
Mallory was driving the boat, she adjusted their sails, and they were able to catch up with the iceberg. She could finally see the animal up close and personal. It seems like they had finally solved this mystery they had been investigating all day, and it was so much wilder than they ever could have imagined.
A Cold, Wet Animal
The animal they discovered had four legs and looked like it could be a dog. After that thought running through their minds, they knew that it, of course, could not be a dog. They had to get closer to see. They were so curious about this. This four-legged dog-like creature looked right at them.
The sad, lonely, cold animal was wet and shivering. It was clear that the animal was freezing from the cold winds and water. The fishermen were so worried about the well-being of this animal, but thankfully now they were close enough to realize exactly what they had found.
