Not so long ago I went to the northern part of the city and shot a newborn little polar bear. The harvest was not small. I just figured out the photos in the last two days and shared them with everyone! After flying from Beijing to Vancouver, fly to Winnipeg for another 4 hours, and then take the screw for 3 hours to get to Churchill. Last October, I came here to shoot polar bears. But this time I went to another place. Take a 3-hour train ride from Churchill City to a temporary stop, then go to the snow blower and after 2 hours you will arrive at the destination of your trip: a guardhouse. We call it a camp, the only place in the world where we can safely photograph a mother of a polar bear and a newborn bear. The camp is open only 25 days a year and accepts no more than 20 people. On the 25th day, the camp was under the supervision of the leaders of the Canadian National Park, and the doors and windows were closed and closed three days before the opening of next year. Every morning g

Every morning get up early, get on a two-hour snowmobile, come to the big lake, it froze, and a car rides along the lake. There are a lot of bear pits around the lake. Polar bears are usually born in December. When the bears grow up to February and March next year, they look only from a bear hole and watch the outside world. My job is to wait for the bear and mom to go down the hole.
Under the guidance of her mother, the bears gradually adapted to the outside world, and also loved the outside world, playing and playing in the snow, as well as spoiled and playfully perverted mothers. For a while, this ice world made of ice and snow was full of touching family fun, delightful and exciting.
When they were playing, I entered a bear hole to experience the experience of life. Sometimes we need to observe the world in terms of animals and think about the world in terms of animals.
This scene is visible in a bear hole from the perspective of a bear.
Bear hole drilling instruction:
In accordance with the suggestions of network users, I will make a small explanation on the issue of drilling a bear well here:
The principle of photographing wild animals is the absence of harassment and non-interference. The bear pit that I drilled was confirmed by the local administrator, the polar bear migrated with the bear in the cave, went to the beach, allowed people to enter and test, and did not cause harassment and interference with the bear.
Usually, the bear’s mother has only two months to hunt the sea. Food mainly consists of seals. As long as she has food, she can eat 100 pounds of food so that her body can recover quickly and her weight will increase by several hundred pounds in a few weeks. In June of each year, ice disappears on the beach, they have no seals, and they are pregnant with a child. They return to the camp and remain until December to give birth to a bear. In the second year of February and March, the little bear emerged from the hole and went for prey to the beach. In the middle, she did not eat for 9 months, and she still had to feed the bear. This dedication gives me the feeling that the mother of a polar bear is the greatest mother in the world!
A female bear usually produces two bears at a time, and sometimes there are three, but the body is always weaker, so usually only two bears survive. After the males gave birth to the mat, they left, and all work on the birth of children was transferred to the bear’s mother.
Next, the bear mom will go hunting with the bears at sea. She will be back here next year. A bear hole usually has two layers, one in the soil and one in the snow more than one meter deep. The bear hole in the mud part is a permanent nest. In the second year, the polar bear will return to the same place and will look for the same cave for breeding. And I also booked a quota for the second year. At this time next year I will be back to see them.
Thanks to all netizens who care about me, care about animals and care about the environment. I hope that we can work together to make the Earth more beautiful and make our homes better!
