Wapusk is the Cree word for “white bear” – a fitting name since this park protects one of the world’s largest polar bear denning areas. Here in northern Manitoba, visitors can view these dangerous bears from the safety of large-wheeled tundra buggies. Or boat on the nearby Churchill River in search of beluga whales.
