Polar bears were seen lumbering across the frozen tundra at Cape Churchill in the province of Manitoba on Sunday, after children were banned from going outdoors to trick or treat on Halloween due to fears that the bears could attack.
Churchill is known as the ‘polar bear capital of the world’ due to its high population of the furry beasts.
During the summer the polar bears move inland to hibernate through the warm weather. When autumn wanes into winter they assemble on the shores of Hudson Bay to prepare for the water to freeze over with a sheet of ice.
