Wager Bay, Canada
1996
Flip Nicklin

“In July a bear shakes off after a swim in Canada's Wager Bay, a finger of Hudson Bay. Here and elsewhere in the bears' southern range, sea ice melts in summer. Without ice for a platform they cannot hunt seals, their main prey???and so they fast, eating almost nothing until ice forms in autumn.”
