In the third article in the series ‘Stay chilled – be cool’ you will meet Nobby and Sisu.
Nobby
Sisu
As we all know Nobby is a MoR (Master of Relaxation) but even a master needs some exercise.
The polar bears’ enclosures in the Yorkshire Wildlife Park are big enough for long walkabouts.
Walking is good for a bear’s condition but oh, so exhausting, too! 🙂
The ‘bed’ must, of course, be thoroughly quality controlled.
Quite acceptable!
But the meadow is more comfortable
Sisu has spent a lot of time looking for Indie …
… but Indie stayed on the other side of the fence … no matter how gigantic Sisu made himself.
Well, there are other things than ‘stalking’ to do! The enclosure offers good places for some climbing, too.
Sisu manages the ‘steps’ with great elegance and bravour!
Then it was time for Sisu to visit the Lake Polar Bear ….
… and admire himself in the water mirror.
Hello, handsome! I couldn’t find Indie but I’m glad I found you!
Süße, kleine Bärchen waren es mal,
jetzt sehen wir stattliche Eisbären
in ihren besten Jahren… 🙂
Dear Pat and Mervi
Thank you for this latest story and photos from Yorkshire.
The males are in the difficult time of year with no females.
Zwei prachtvolle Bären, die nach Lust und Laune chillen können!
Dear Pat!
I agree with Chris: the adorable little cuties have turned into magnificent and impressive male bears. I hope the hormonal storms in spring will pass quickly and they can live together as friends again. I particularly like the pictures of the sitting Sisu and the dreamy looking Nobby. Thanks for another update from Yorkshire!
Hugs
