Polar Bears!!!!






After class was over last wednesday I went back up to the polar bears, and finally she was there!
I stayed there for a little over an hour, at first she was just sleeping with her tidy cats bucket but after a while it got interesting, it looked as though she was sniffing the air and kept standing on her hind legs. Low and behold her trainer was up in the bushes waving food at her. I ran down to the underwater viewing area and channel five was all set up for a video segment about the polar bears at lincoln park zoo. Aparently Anana (the one in all the photos) is the sister of Lee, and Lee was just transfered to another zoo in Detroit. There are 2 female Polar Bears in Detroit that the zoo keepers are hoping Lee will make babies with. I watched the trainers side of the conversation while at the zoo. but here is the live segment:
