October 15 Chrissy's Blog From The Tundra


Chrissy is in Churchill, Manitoba working with Polar Bears International (PBI) on the tundra buggies. She is an in field lecturer. It is her job to inform tourists from around the world about the polar bears they came to see. The bears congregate around Churchill this time of year as they wait for the waters of Hudson Bay to freeze. Then the polar bears go out on the ice to hunt for baby seals with baseball bats...I think that is what they use...I remember hearing something about stopping the Canadians from clubbing the seals...OK, I'm not sure about the baseball bats. Anyway, you can read Chrissy's daily blog for Brookfield Zoo here. If you are interested in going to see the polar bears check out the Tundra Buggy site.
