This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

Nanuq is a Travel Bug Dog Tag Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

Trackable ItemIf you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

Hello, my name is Nanuq! I may be a cute polar bear, but I’m a trackable, so please don’t keep me!

Members of my species are often considered marine mammals, because we spend many months of the year at sea. In the wild we are found mostly along the perimeter of the polar ice pack, where there are lots of seals to eat. We like to be where it is cold and icy!

My goal is to travel north. The further north I go, the better. There aren’t any geocaches on the ice pack where my family lives, but if you can keep me north of N 50º latitude maybe it won’t take as long for them to get my postcards.

Thank you for helping me on my way!
