Mother Polar Bear Protection Hudson Bay Churchill Manitoba

Protection is the number one concern for any mother, but a Polar Bear will keep her cub safe anyway she knows how while being watched by humans who are on a tour to the Hudson Bay in Churchill, Manitoba.

A Polar Bear cub knows that the protection of its mother is very important and will stay close if feeling threatened in anyway. The mother hovers over her cub as this is its first time seeing human faces staring at it from the windows of a Tundra Buggy tour along the shores of the Hudson Bay in Churchill, Manitoba.

While the mother tends to her cub, one should never forget as cute as this looks, polar bears are extremely large animals and can be very dangerous. This eleven month old cub will feed from its mother's milk until it reaches 2 or 3 years old, but all the while learning how to eat and kill solid food.
