Churchill Manitoba Polar Bears in canada
Churchill is a town on the shore of Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada and it is most famous for the many polar bears.

Churchhill is a very famous location for Arctic research and the town also has some restaurants, tour operators, several hotels and a health centre. There are specially modified buses known as tundra buggies and tourists can safely view polar bears from tundra buggies. The most feasible times to see Polar Bears are October and early November. Through these buses you can see hundreds of polar bears which wait on the vast Peninsula until the water freezes on Hudson Bay.
