Knut and snow

5.1.2024 by Mervi

Our Knuti bear was cute all seasons but I think he was especially cute lying or playing in the snow. Luckily he had chances to enjoy the white stuff many times.

MarionK took this photo when Knut experienced snow for the first time.

Knut loved to have dark fur ….

… but after some rolling in the snow he was snow white!

What a happy smile!

A Christmas tree was a popular toy …

… and, of course, even ball games were on the schedule.

Oh bear, it was so wonderful and exciting!

Sometimes Knut just wanted to relax on the white stuff.

Naturally I just had to make some Winter collages.

Here’s the trojka – Knut, Flocke and Raspi

In this collage I let Knut visit a magic ice castle.

  2. In his short life, Knut experienced many wonderful things, and brought the whole world together. Always in our hearts. Thank you for these memories, Mervi, and to the photographers who were lucky enough to be there for these magical moments and share them with the rest of us.

  3. Dear Mervi Snow and Knut go together of course and these photos are among the happiest times. His face shows how much he was enjoying himself.

  4. Dear Mervi!
    Thank you for these beautiful and heart-warming photos of Knut in the snow! This bear was something very special: charming, droll, curious, sensual like all bears and also kind and people-orientated. Knut was loved and he knew it.
    Knut brought joy to so many people and all those who were able to experience him will never forget him.

    Hugs

  5. Dear Mervi,

    As I have written elsewhere, snow is a favourite element for all polar bears in zoos and encourages many activities. It was no different with Knut: sliding, rolling around and scrubbing were just a few of them, as thousands of photos have shown.
    The “aha-photo” by MarionK is a particularly impressive photo and is like when children see a Christmas tree for the first time – simply marvellous!

    Knut discovered the special properties of snow in the way he explored and observed everything new and unknown, with great curiosity and intensity!

    Oh yes, I particularly like the snow pictures with him.

    Thank you very much for this review on his monthly memorial day, dear Mervi, and of course for your funny collages!
