An animated polar bear cub checking out the contents of a tundra buggy which had ventured into the Churchill Wildlife Management Area on the shores of Hudson Bay.
At 11 months old, this curious polar bear cub still has another year or two before he'll be weaned from his mother at which stage he will begin fending for himself. In the meantime, he awaits the ice build up in Hudson Bay to accompany his mother to rich hunting grounds.
