The polar bear ladies in the Zoo Brno have brand new enclosures and they seem to be satisfied and happy. As you may know Anna and Elsa came to Brno from Bremerhaven in Germany. Martina visited them on the 2nd of August.
Cora has lived there almost all her life. She was born in November 1998 in St. Petersburg and came to Brno in March 2000. Cora is a daughter of Uslada and Menschikov.
Cora is a mother of five children with Umka who died in August 2018.
2007 Tom ♂
2007 Bill ♂
2012 Kometa ♀
2012 Nanuk ♂
2015 Noria ♀
Now Cora is a ‘Freiherrin’ and enjoys her life as senior polar bear lady.
Martina lovingly calls her Corinka. I find that nick name very nice.
During Martina’s visit Cora was curiously observing the newcomers.
Today the zoo staff tried to connect Cora with Anna but they are very cautious. Cora protects her territory.
Anna and Elsa were born in August 2019 in Bremerhaven. Their parents are Valeska and Lloyd and their grandparents were the famous Vienna and Churchill. The twin girls came to Brno in the end of July.
Elsa is more active than Anna. She came to the fence many times to watch the visitors.
… and then she lied down and just chilled.
Anna is more cautious. It took a while until she wanted to ‘present’ herself to the visitors but now she’s used to the new surroundings.
Even Anna seemed to be curious about the visitors.
Anna as a stone lover 🙂
