Take a tour inside Tundra Buggy® One and see how we monitor the bears and share their story with the world.
A Window Into Their World
Tundra Buggy One is our mobile broadcast studio that brings the Subarctic tundra near Churchill, Manitoba, into classrooms and homes around the world. Join us each fall as we LIVE stream the Polar Bear Cam and our Tundra Connections program.
Enter Tundra Buggy One
It’s a unique roving research vehicle and broadcast studio generously donated for our use by Frontiers North Adventures. From this base camp on wheels, we monitor the bears and host live Tundra Connections® webcasts as polar bears roam outside, giving us a unique opportunity to tell the polar bear’s story and inspire action.

Reporting Live
The mobile studio also supports our live Polar Bear Cam and is available for live news broadcasts during the annual gathering of polar bears, including past coverage from media outlets including NBC Nightly News, CBC News, and the BBC.
"We are grateful to our partners Frontiers North Adventures and explore.org whose collaboration and generosity make Tundra Buggy One a reality."

Annual Fall Gathering
Every fall, hundreds of polar bears gather near Churchill, Manitoba, Canada, on the shores of Hudson Bay to wait for the sea ice to form. It’s one of the most extraordinary events in the natural world, offering a rare glimpse into the lives of these animals.
A Changing Climate
The single biggest threat to polar bears is sea ice loss due to climate warming. Bringing their story to the world, and that of the Arctic more broadly, brings home the message that urgent action is needed.
Polar Bear Cams
Immerse yourself in our live Polar Bear, Beluga, and Northern Lights Cams.
