Polar Bear Mom and Cub in Wapusk National Park
This beautiful and funny series of photos were captured by photographer Daisy Gilardini/Caters News in Wapusk National Park near Churchill, Manitoba. The park is one of the world’s most popular denning areas for polar bear sows and cubs. Gilardini waited 117 hours (nearly two weeks) in front of a polar bear den to get these images. That’s patience. But well worth the cold and windy wait!
