  1. Dear Michelle
    Thank you for a walk through the Milwaukee Zoo.
    Some excellent shots of the bears and camels !
    I hope, wintertime won´t be too hard for the
    animals and their two legged friends !?
    Greetings
    Chris 🙂

  2. Dear Michelle,
    the first snow is always a big surprise for the animals too, and they all enjoy it in their own way!

    Thank you for the wintry photos and my wish for the bears:
    Let it snow – let is snow – let it snow!

  3. Dear Michelle!
    Both Bactrian camels and brown bears are robust in winter due to their thick fur and are probably happy about the first snowflakes. For the bears it also means that they could soon retire for hibernation, which I sometimes envy….
    Thanks for the pictures of the first snow in Milwaukee!

    Hugs
    Anke

  4. Dear Michelle!
    The animals in the zoo have no problems with the cold weather. The first snow is always exciting.
    Hugs
