Seal River Heritage Lodge guests, professional photographers, photo leaders and staff post a large number of photos to Instagram, both on their personal accounts and on the Churchill Wild Instagram page.
The album below includes photos taken at Seal River Heritage Lodge. You can click on any of the photos and they will open a new window to the photographer or author page. We love to share photos from our polar bear lodges, especially from guests. If you’ve taken some great photos at Seal River and have posted them to Instagram, using the tag #sealriverheritagelodge could help you gain more exposure through this album.
We’ll swap out the photo at the top of this post on a regular basis and link it to a different guest, photographer, photo leader, guide or staffer, in an effort to create additional exposure for all our valued guests, stakeholders and evangelists. Of course, we’re also hoping you’ll follow @churchillwildsafaris on Instagram too!
A huge thanks to all of our guests, professional photographers, photo leaders and staff for sharing your incredible photos with us! Enjoy!
The most frequent litter size of a Polar Bear is 2 cubs. During our stay at the Hudson Bay we were very lucky to see a mother with her 2 cute an curios cubs coming very close to the Lodge. Thanks churchillwildsafaris for this amazing experience.
Amazing sightings of Polar Bears at Seal River Heritage Lodge - unbelievable to see these animals in the wild.
Reading the breeze. A young polar bear checks the arctic air for information that helps them navigate their arctic realm. The wind can carry information about potential dangers, finding a meal or locating other bears, just to name a few.

Polar bear sunrise at 8am, it’s November, guests are in Seal River lodge having breakfast all nice and toasty. I’m all alone in the yard protected by a 8ft fence. Bob the polar bear has just awoken from sleeping on a warm bed of dry kelp it’s a cool -17 Celsius outside. Magical is the only word to describe the experience as he walks calmly passed me, as the golden sunrise lights up the freezing Hudson Bay. To have an almost fully grown polar bear all to myself is something I’ll never forget! #polarbear #polarbears #polarbearinternational #polarbearsofinstagram #polarbearclub #polarbearlove #polarbearconservation #sealriverheritagelodge #churchhillwildsafaris #hudsonbay #canada #arctic #nikon #d3 #70200mm #nikonphotography #nikonwildlife #natgeo #natgeowild #bbcfrozenplanet #globalwarming #savepolarbears #bears #bearsofinstagram #travel #instatravel #wanderlust #yourphotophotographer #photooftheday churchillwildsafaris upheremag canadageography natgeoyourshot

It’s that time of year again when you hear the crunch of the ice and the kings of the arctic begin their royal rumble. Happy international polar bear week!

I have had quite a few amazing experiences with wildlife in my life! Lying on the ground photographing a wild polar bear is one I will never forget.

Been off the grid the past week with churchillwildsafaris and travelmanitoba. I couldn’t get over how goofy these Polar Bears were. Moments later the guy on the left belly flopped off the rock. #churchillwild #sealriverheritagelodge #exploremb #sponsored matadornetwork #travelstoke

Polar bear portrait, Seal River, Hudson Bay. -20F here we come. Being on the ground with a wild polar is an experience like no other!
Using Live View made the exposure easy!
I have been taking groups to photograph polar bears for 15 years, understanding their behavior is paramount, as well as having compétent guides.
Warm Regards, (wink) Chas.
Say 'cheese'! 📷 It's World Photography Day! 📷
We've got the most amazing collection of polar bear photos thanks to all the talented photographers who've visited us over the years. This one, taken by @fast_dennis, is one of our many faves.

Not everything up north is the size of a polar bear - some animals are small, extremely fast, and nearly impossible to spot in their environment. What a treat to spend a few minutes watching this little critter scamper around.

New meaning to the name 'Polar Explorer'.
Living in polar bear country gives us amazing insight into the personalities of these fascinating animals.

So Tasty
With their white winter fur, arctic foxes are kind of camouflaged on the snow covered shores of Hudson Bay.

Ice Pupper, Arctic Snow Floof, and Sir Frosty McKensington are all native Inuit names for polar bears.
Today marks our last day here in Churchill. While I would be quite literally happy to stay for another 3 weeks, all good things must come to an end. Thanks again to travelmanitoba for getting me here and churchillwildsafaris for being the best hosts a man like me could ever possibly hope for.
What do you think is on this big beautiful polar bears mind?
