Experience one of the worlds great wildlife adventures on the shores of Hudson Bay in Manitoba. Each year in the autumn, scores of polar bears gather near Churchill, waiting for the bay to freeze over so that they can venture out onto the ice to hunt seals, their favourite prey. The world's largest carnivore, these magnificent animals weigh up to 500kg and stand up to an incredible 3 metres tall. The bears are viewed from specially designed all-terrain vehicles called Tundra Buggies, which allow you to watch and photograph the polar bear at close quarters and in safety.
