WEBINAR | A Changing Subarctic: Reflections From 5 Years of Guiding in Churchill
Expedition Leader Kristina Disney has been introducing Nat Hab travelers to the magic of Churchill, Manitoba, and its iconic polar bears for five years. But the Churchill of today is not the same Churchill she encountered during her first guiding season. Join Kristina on a journey through the changes she's noticed in this Canadian subarctic ecosystem as she shares stories, photographs and more from her adventures. And find out how observing your environment can be a powerful tool to stay connected to it.
WEBINAR | Polar Senses: What Polar Bears See (and Hear, and Smell…)
You've heard of walking a mile in someone's shoes -- but what about walking a mile in a polar bear’s paws? Join Expedition Leader Kristina Disney to explore the world through the "polar senses" of a polar bear. Find out what appeals to their appetite, what they listen to and look for on the tundra, and what they can learn from a single sniff of the Arctic air. Plus, learn how you can hone your own polar senses on a trip to witness the planet’s largest gathering of polar bears!
WEBINAR | The Astounding Dietary Adaptations of Polar Bears
Did you know polar bears exist almost exclusively on seal meat? Join biologist and Expedition Leader Kristina Disney as she explains how the King of the Arctic has evolved to thrive on a hyper-carnivorous diet, and how, as an apex predator, it represents the entire Arctic food chain. She’ll also explain the process of bioaccumulation and how polar bears have adapted to overcome the harmful effects of toxins in their environment, particularly an excess of Vitamin A.
WEBINAR | 50 Years of Protecting Polar Bears
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Agreement on the Conservation of Polar Bears, a multi-nation alliance that kicked off a half-century of new polar bear protections and research. Join Elisabeth Kruger, World Wildlife Fund’s Manager of Arctic Wildlife, and Nat Hab’s Chief Sustainability Officer, Court Whelan, for a look back at the past five decades of polar bear preservation and a discussion of what’s next, from collar-mapping efforts to conservation travel.
