The polar bears’ enclosures in Novosibirsk are covered by snow now. In the morning Gerda took Shauna and Nordi for a walk in order to check that the snow hasn’t melted during the night.
The snow was still there so it was time to do some stretching.
I wonder if we should make a video of our morning gymnastics …..
Mama, how many nights do I have sleep until Father Frost and the Snow Maiden come to visit us?
Don’t you worry! They will come ….
Oh, the kids are so impatient. OK, I’ve been a young cub, too, so I understand them.
But mama, waiting makes me soooo tired!
Cheer up and use your imagination. Picture that Father Frost and the Snow Maiden are already here – it will help!
Thank you, mama! You’re such a clever mum – I feel less tired now.
We must be good kids now so Father Frost doesn’t forget to visit us.
Mama has educated us so well that Father Frost must be satisfied!
We are the best friends!
Mama’s milk bar is still our favourite restaurant! No Christmas dinner table can beat it!!
Beautiful face
Papa Kai loves the Winter – especially the ice! 🙂
Merry Christmas to you all from Kai ….
…. and Gerda, Shauna and Nordi
On behalf of the readers I wish all the animals, keepers and vets in the Novosibirsk Zoo a Merry Christmas!
I also want to thank Anna and Arkadi for all the lovely photos that have make it possible to follow the life of the sweet polar bear family all year long!
