Nora and Ranzo controlled the Winter tyre

Black tyres are popular toys for polar bears in the zoos and, of course, even Ranzo and Nora in Vienna love this special toy.

Ranzo seems to be doing a quality control to make sure the tyre is OK before Nora starts playing with it. 🙂

No tyre is totally polar bear paw proof! 🙂

We have no Christmas tree yet but maybe we could decorate this stick?

Knuti’s Weekly wishes Nora and Ranzo a happy Christmas season and the same, of course, to their keepers. We also hope there will be lots of snow and ice during this Winter!
