Novosibirsk – Welcome snow!

19.11.2023 – Photos by V. Gabova

Gerda, Kai, Belka and Strelka have been waiting for the snow and now the white stuff finally came.

Mama, have you seen what has happened during the night?

Oh bear, I love the whiteness!

Come on, Sis! Let’s welcome our friend Winter with a polar bear polka!

Hello feathered visitor! Don’t be afraid – I just want to say ‘privet’ to you.

There are still some ‘open water’ so it’s easy to find the toys. Soon at least some of them will be under the ice.

Although the temperatures aren’t very low yet the frosty nights have built ice in the pool.

What a nice ice block!

No matter what season it is – small polar bears need nourishment and mama’s milk bar has very flexible opening hours! 🙂

  1. Endlich ist er da der Schnee und das Eis dazu.
    Da lässt es sich natürlich prächtig spielen.
    Ob nun im Wasser mit den Kanistern oder an
    Land beim Jagen von Elstern. Es freut mich
    für die Bären, dass der Winter zurück ist.

  2. Dear V. Gabova, dear Mervi!
    I am delighted for the polar bear family in Novosibirsk that their favourite season has arrived with winter and that it has already snowed. You can see from the pictures that Belka and Strelka are really enjoying it. They look cheerful and full of life.
    But if it were up to me, winter could be limited to the north for the time being…

    Hugs
    Anke

  3. Da sind Belka und Strelka ganz in ihrem Element!! Sie genießen die eiskalte, weiße Überraschung !!❄🐻‍❄️❄🐻‍❄️❄😊
