All kinds of enrichment for the polar bears

21.8.2021 – Photos by Sheila and Philip Baker

Every time I see new photos from the Yorkshire Wildlife Park I also discover new kinds of enrichment for the polar bears. No wonder Flocke, Indiana, Tala and Yuma are busy exploring their new home – there are always surprises for them!

The curious cubs certainly have a lot to do both in land and in the water.

Maybe we must were masks soon so I’d better practice! Oh yeah, this seems to fit perfectly!

This mask hasn’t such a good quality! 🙂

The more – the merrier! It looks like Tala has joined her brothers.

Flocke and Tala. There’s still a big difference in size.

Hamish and Nobby are good friends. I wonder if they’ve heard some ‘juicy’ gossip …. 🙂

Nobby demonstrates the typical polar bear pose for us.

Sisu likes to wander on the green grass and admire the flowers.

It seems to me Sisu is already bigger than papa Manasse and big brother Ranzo. My little ‘teddy’ has certainly grown to an impressive teenager!

Dear Sheila and Philip! Thank you so much for all these fantastic photos! I wish you and all the animals in Yorkshire a pleasant late Summer.
