Polar Bears in Iqaluit


I have never actually seen a live Polar Bear in Iqaluit but there were two who ventured into the City last Tuesday. The bears were found at Sylvia Grinnel Park, just down the road. Fellow Iqaluit resident, Annie Manning managed to get out and snap this fantastic close up. I love the North.

Wow awesome picture! So where were the bears then? There was the CBC report on the no-news release and then nothing but rumour so we all assumed it was half fiction and probably a hundred or more kms away.

Wow! And we missed it! Probably my one and only chance to ever see a polar bear. :) Great picture!
