Wapusk: The Polar Bear Nursery
Wapusk National Park, whose name means 'White Bear' in Cree, protects one of the world's largest polar bear maternity denning areas. Each year, pregnant polar bears dig dens in the permafrost to give birth. The park's remote location and strict access restrictions are essential for protecting these vulnerable mothers and cubs during their first critical months. #Canada #Wapusk #PolarBears #Manitoba 🇨🇦
