Natural Habitat guide Kurt Johnson reported on a wonderful trip last week! Highlights included sparring bears, snowy owls, Arctic fox and two Arctic hares. “Our last day was lucky enough to watch a polar bear -a small older bear known locally as ‘skinny’- taken by helicopter to the north as well as a large male, tranquilized, from a helicopter and transported to the polar bear compound”, reported Kurt. Here are some of the photographs from the trip:
