Berit showing tongue, teeth, toes and tummy

26.2.2024 by Michelle Rippey

Tomorrow is the International Polar Bear Day , so I’m tossing it back to my President’s Day visit to Henry Vilas Zoo (Madison). Here’s beautiful Berit in the Henry Vilas Zoo with plenty of tongue, teeth, toes & tummy for you.

Hello, Berit. Yes, I’m back. I see you’re enjoying a fresh branch on the grizzly side.

Berit’s up….what’s next? Still some ice & snow in Madison

I thought I could get to the other side before Berit, but she beat me. Hmm, nap time?

“No nap for me! I have work to do ”

What’s on the ceiling that you’re knocking down? Perhaps just filing her nails.

There was no shortage of tongue outs….

“Are you getting all this? I see you blocking the 🌞 glare with your camera bag.” The struggle was real, but no worries…

Berit, you’ve been doing this silliness for quite a while. I guess you wanted a crowd & you got it. 🙂

“Yep, I just like watching my camera friend try to capture photos!”

“That’s it! I’m done now.”

Look at all the humans watching me. Don’t forget to share photos with my friends, so that they know I’m doing GREAT!”

Snack attack time. Berit then moved to the polar bear side…

And found another stick to clean her teeth after snacking….

  1. Das sind ja recht ungewöhnliche und lustige Fotos von Berit, der schönen Eisbärin❣👍🐻‍❄️👌😊

  2. Dear Michelle,

    You’ve caught another lovely photo session with Berit.
    She is a good actress and bear model with a great sense of wit and humour.

    That’s good, because we can see that she doesn’t miss her young mate Bo so much.

    Many thanks for your visit and best wishes!

  3. Dear Michelle!
    Berit seems to enjoy presenting herself humorously in front of your camera and the captions do the rest to make this photo series a pleasure. I am very pleased that Berit doesn’t miss Bo as much as I had feared and that she is obviously doing well.
    Thank you for these heart-warming pictures!

    Hugs

  4. What fun photos! Berit is coy, flirtatious, cutesy, whimsical. So many expressions. We in Cincinnati miss Berit a lot, but she has a great life there, where she can swim and roll in the grass.

    Thanks for the Berit photos.

  5. Dear Michelle!
