Polar Bear
Nanook, a polar bear, captured the hearts of zoo visitors with his winter-inspired playtime. During the holiday season, the zoo placed large snowdrifts and ice blocks in his enclosure. Nanook’s reaction was pure joy as he rolled in the snow, tossed ice blocks into the air, and even built small piles of snow as if creating his version of snow forts. One particularly touching moment occurred when he shared his snow pile with a younger bear, showing a rare glimpse of camaraderie. Nanook’s playful demeanor highlights the resilience of polar bears and raises awareness about the threats they face due to climate change.
