Polar Bear Cam Moves to Cape Churchill

Dear WildCam Fan,   Polar Bear Cam Moves to Cape Churchill In order to bring you the best possible views of polar bears, our Polar Bear Cam team has packed up their gear and is moving their camp to Cape Churchill, deep into polar bear territory. The Cape is a congregation point for many bears, and our last opportunity to observe the polar bears before they head out onto the ice of Hudson Bay. A reconnaissance team was sent out to survey the area near the Cape. Image from Polar Bear Cam At least 41 males were seen–many larger than 400 kg! The live broadcast from Cape Churchill begins tomorrow, Friday, November 16th.

So that you can tailor the trip to suit your interests, we've kept our itineraries flexible and built in options wherever possible.

Our unique itineraries span the globe from Alaska to Vietnam. Simply choose any of the 15 trips on our website and select the week you'd like to travel. We'll take care of the rest.
