Characters
- Wumpa (Chinese: 沃帕; pinyin: Wò pà; Lorne Cardinal) is a brown walrus who is a narrator that tells real-life stories which take place in the Arctic Circle. At the end of each show, Wumpa sings his very own "goodbye song" by playing a bass guitar that looks like a snowshoe. Most of the show's episodes end with Wumpa's goodbye song's most famous line, which is "Well, bye-bye, and don't forget, always keep your tusks shiny and your blubber clean". He only occasionally appears in the story itself.
- Zig (simplified Chinese: 弯; traditional Chinese: 彎; pinyin: Wān) and Zag (Chinese: 曲; pinyin: Qū) are two young snowmobiles. Zig is yellow and pink, while Zag is blue and orange. A bicycle bell is mounted on Zig's handlebars and a horn is mounted on Zag's.
- Tiguak (simplified Chinese: 钛瓜; traditional Chinese: 鈦瓜; pinyin: Tài guā; Tim Gosley) is a polar bear who lives in an igloo and mostly eats fish. He has a bed and a toy bear he calls "Mr. Snoozers".
- Seeka (Chinese: 塞卡; pinyin: Sāi kǎ; Jani Lauzon) and Tuk (simplified Chinese: 笃; traditional Chinese: 篤; pinyin: Dǔ; Julie Burroughs) are snow hares who live in a den with two entrances – one for each of them.
