10.9.2024 – Photos by Pat Waldron
Hello! Many of you already know me but let me introduce myself anyway. I’m Hamish and I live in the Yorkshire Wildlife Park.
The rangers (keepers) want to keep us happy with all kinds of enrichment and this time they gave me this nice canue.
Of course, I wanted to check if it’s eatable …
No, it isn’t but I left my ‘tooth marks’ on it.
Oh bear, why don’t they make these canues polar bear proof!
Sorry, dear canue. I didn’t mean to break you but I’m a strong polar bear ….
…. and sometimes I forget how strong I am.
I love you anyway! You’re beautiful even with some minor beauty bugs!
Dear Pat,
Hamisch loves his Canu more than anything and that shows each of your great photos, thank you very much and best regards!

Dear Pat!
It’s always wonderful to see how happy polar bears get about toys and materials to keep them occupied. Hamish can’t get enough of his red kayak, even though he still hasn’t worked out what it’s for…
Apart from that, he wouldn’t have fitted in anyway.
Many thanks for the great photos!
Hugs

Dear Pat!
Thank you for the pictures of Hamish. He played very nice with red canue.

Hamish scheint das rote Kanu wirklich “zu lieben”! Das ist besser, “als es zum Fressen gern zu haben”!!
Die Fotos von Pat zeigen immer wieder, dass es den Eisbären im YWP gut geht und das Tierpflegerteam sich sehr darum bemüht, dass es so ist!!👍😊👌👏😊
Dear Pat and Mervi
Hamish has really settled down in YWP and is a fine Polar Bear nearly grown up.
I am pretty certain he is hoping to make the red kayak become food.
