This trip has a very specific goal, to find and photograph the white Arctic wolves who live on this island but we may also find other arctic wildlife such as Polar Bears, Musk Ox, Arctic hares, Arctic Fox’s, Prairie caribou, Seals, Lemmings, Snowy owls, Rock ptarmigans and more.
The Arctic Wolves of Ellesmere Island have been professionally photographed by no more than 60 people in the history.
The estimate is that there are only about 200 wolves living on Ellesmere Island, the tenth largest island in the world, slightly smaller than Great Britain.
We will be heading to the north west side of the Island where some of the wolves packs are completely naive to the presence of people since they have never been persecuted or encountered by man.
