This Saturday was a very special day at the Oga Aquarium in Japan. The name of the polar bear baby was announced.
The sweet Little man got the name Momota – maybe even spelled as Momo Ta …
It’s easy to see how the keepers decided to give the cubbie this name. It’s after mama Momo and the papa GoTa.
Mama, isn’t it nice I have a name now. I like to be called after you and papa!
Papa Gota
What a nice portrait of Momo and her son!
Of course, Momota wanted to show us his cute tongue again. 🙂
He’s already eating some solid food like fish. The red spot on his forehead isn’t an injury but a ‘memory’ from a play with a fish head. 🙂
Momota is a playful little guy.
He proudly presented his toys to his fans.
Blue seems to be a favourite colour but even red is quite OK. 🙂
Oh bear, what’s this? A yellow mushroom …. no, it’s a baby bear in disguise! 🙂
Please, feel free to give me a standing ovation! Thank you! Arigato!
That ball is almost as big as I am but soon it will a little ball compare to me! I will grow as big as my mama and papa!
That’s it for today! Sayonara! さようなら
