BEAR TOURS OF CANADA
ABOUT Bear Tours of Canada
Hearing a bear grunt as he forages for food or finding a tree that is a favourite bear scratching post is an experience that can really move you. Bear spotting in Canada is common for locals that hike with bells and clearly make their presence known, but for visitors seeing these favourite animals of the wild is best with local guides as 150-1000 pound bears don't usually stop for a picnic. Black and brown bears reside in all provinces and territories except for Prince Edward Island. Various locations across the country offer hikes to frequented spots with safe lookouts. Grizzly bear tours are in high demand as there is limited capacity to respect protective parameters, however, spotting the four legged furry animals in the wild makes up for having to reserve so early. Lodges along the edge of the Great Bear Rainforest offer viewing experiences based on the month of visit, as grizzlies frolick with their cubs in Spring and fish for salmon only during the yearly run of Fall. Polar bears are a subspecies that can be seen from land in Churchill Manitoba, also known as the polar bear capital of the world. During a few weeks over October and November, bears laze on the edge of town waiting for the ice of Hudson's Bay to freeze so they can walk out and hunt seals. There is also an opportunity to see bears from an expedition cruise through the Canadian Arctic.
