It is a good day to catch up with
Qannik, the 3 year old cub who was rescued in Alaska after she was
separated from her mother and sister.
Es ist ein guter Tag, um
aufzuholen mit Qannik, dem 3-jährigen Eisbär - Mädchen, die als
Jungtier in Alaska gerettet wurde, nachdem sie von ihrer Mutter und
Schwester getrennt wurde.

Qannik now weighs over 400 pounds. She
loves to play in the pool at the Louisville Zoo, and her favorite toy is a big log.

Dear MOLLY - Thank you SO MUCH for this wonderful 'International Polar Bear Day gift'. That's a real joy you brought to me, most probably also "to us"! What handsome bears QANNIK and SIKU are! Hopefully they won't have to wait too long anymore until they will be introduced to each other, and hopefully everything will go smoothly with their sociation!
ReplyDeleteDear Dumba,
ReplyDeleteI think they will be together very soon. It will be nice for each of them to have a playmate. The Louisville Zoo does a wonderful job in keeping the bears interested and busy, but Siku and Qannik will enjoy polar bear games together, hopefully this summer.
Molly
