Beyond the Bears: The Hidden Beauty of Churchill’s Tundra Ecosystem
While polar bears may hog the spotlight on a visit to Churchill, there is so much more to this fascinating subarctic environment. Presented by Expedition Leader Kristina Disney, this webinar focuses on the beauty she has experienced on the tundra while living and working throughout the Canadian North, from the Yukon Territory all the way to Labrador. From newly hatched ptarmigan that follow us down the trail to the crunch of dry lichen underfoot and a surprised musk ox, Kristina’s stories invite travelers to see the tundra around Churchill not as a windswept wasteland, or merely a backdrop against which to view polar bears, but as a sleeping giant—an expansive landscape that quietly hides its wonders, until you get curious and learn how to look for them. You’ll come away with a much broader sense of this fragile northern ecosystem, recognizing that the tundra needs our attention and care just as much as rain forests and coral reefs do.
