Grizzly caught in far North

Taloyoak hunter Justin Aqqaq shows off a grizzly bear he caught in late August. He was hunting at a site known as Aqviqtunnuaq, which is located approximately 360 km north of his community — the northernmost on Canada’s mainland. (Photo courtesy of Justin Aqqaq)

      The only Qikiqtani communities north of it are Arctic Bay, Pond Inlet, Grise Fiord, and Resolute. Everywhere else is south.

      True that. Also, it just makes sense there’d be grizzlies anywhere on the mainland in the North

    Grizzly Bear habitat is not that far from where it was caught
