A white Berit for a change

21.2.2025 by Michelle Rippey

On the 3rd of February I visited 🐻‍❄️ Berit at Henry Vilas Zoo (Madison). She was lounging on the grizzly side and then headed to 🐻‍❄️ side, so I thought she might take a dip in the pool. ✌️❤️&🐻‍❄️

Whoa….who’s that clean 🐻‍❄️

I ❤️ the 🐻‍❄️ lounging position….

Working the core or time to move on?

Moving on and making sure we both get our steps in….

Berit’s on the 🐻‍❄️ side now. Will she take a dip in the pool?

Hmm….it’s a grizzly day, so yes or no?

After taking a few drinks…..I believe the answer is…… Not this time….

Back to the grizzly side to relax. See you next time, Berit!

  1. Dear Michelle!
    Berit is a wonderful and charming old bear lady. Whether white or brown, she always looks great. All your posts clearly show how much you like her. I would feel the same way.
    I hope you can visit her for a long time to come!

    Hugs

  2. Dear Michelle The Grand Dames of the Polar Bear world are always worth a visit. Lady Berit is looking well. Thank you

  3. It is always so nice to see photos of our Berit, now in her golden years. She used to be shaped like a torpedo, so sleek and trim and slim, back in her Cincinnati days, and now she is a fluffy round older lady. Thanks for sharing the photos. She is looking good.
