Before the ice freezes the bears frequently make themselves beds in the peat--and the peat is also high moisture and can provide them with much needed water as they wait to begin their feasting out on the ice. While they are off the ice (from July-October) the bears typically eat very little; and many enter a state known as walking hibernation. The bears of Churchill are a unique PB population. They are the only group of PBs that spend a significant portion of their life each year on land. Most PB populations spend all of their time on the ice.

Having filled up with Timmin's Timmy's breakfast sandwich we continued north on our trek home - and saw this mascot in Cochrane. There would have been much more to see had we not been anxious to reach home. Cochrane is home to the "Cochrane Polar Bear Habitat" the only one of its kind in the world - a captive bear facility dedicated solely to Polar Bears.
Here also you can take the Polar Bear Express to Moosenee on James Bay to see the Polar bears in their natural habitat.
One of the twins loves the water and to swim with her mother Ilka. The other seems to be a sissy. Both Ilka and the other sibling tempt him to come and play in the water, but without success.
At this time the gender of the twins was unknown, but we were sure that the bold one was a girl, and the other one had to be a boy. Later it was discovered that in fact it was a girl and a boy.
