Will you be a polar bear this Halloween? Natural Habitat Adventures photo.
This Halloween Animal quiz is a fun way to see what animal you should be for Halloween. Natural Habitat Adventures has come up with this as a fun way to celebrate the upcoming holiday and get ready to dress in your animal personality. Halloween in Churchill is quite different from the ones we experience in the rest of the world. Polar bear patrols with floodlights search the town area street by street while children go trick or treating to ensure their safety. However, in Churchill, kids are not allowed to dress as polar bears or in white for that matter. Keep an eye out for an exciting blog post this coming Halloween from Churchill!
Churchill experienced one of the earliest snowfalls of a polar bear season in many years yesterday. Chilly temperatures and white ground cover have provided nice early season conditions for polar bears out on the tundra. These photos of a mother and cub are exciting fresh images to start the new season. This is looking like it could be one of the best polar bear seasons in a long time!
