Did you know a portion of Montana at one time was part of Rupert’s Land, an area of Canada “given” to the Hudson’s Bay Company? Did you know Montana nutrients help to feed the polar bears in Hudson Bay? That Glacier National Park’s Triple Divide Peak feeds the Pacific, Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic/Arctic oceans? Learn these and many more interesting facts as Frank Tyro presents;

“𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗮 𝘁𝗼 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗮: 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 “𝗕𝗶𝗴 𝗦𝗸𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲” 𝘁𝗼 “𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗮” 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗮.

Frank will also present the documentary “Walking Bear Comes Home- the Life and Work of Chuck Jonkel.” The documentary primarily covers the work he started in 1965 for the Canadian Wildlife Service to begin the first scientific studies of polar bears. He was the only person to have done extensive studies of polar bears, black bears and grizzly bears in the world. This humorous and enlightening program is airing on KSPS, Spokane PBS in January, but you can see it at the Ninepipes Museum during this talk.
