Find the Polar Bears Activity
Did you know that polar bears gather on the shores of Hudson Bay every fall during the polar-bear migration season? They are waiting for the bay to freeze so they can hunt ringed seals! With Google Street View imagery, you can roam the tundra on a Tundra Buggy® and look for polar bears. Using a set of clues, try to find polar bears out on the tundra!
Clues
Look for an off–white, yellowish color in the photo. Polar bears appear off–white in comparison to the pristine white snow surrounding them.
Look for bears hunkered down in the willows (low shrubs found in the tundra). They are resting and saving energy for hunting.
