A very playful polar bear

From the San Diego zoo. I really wish the looking glass / plastic wasn't all scratched up! But for what it's worth...he was so playful and just so beautiful.

Top predators and magnificent animals, must have been an experience to be so close to one.

Re: A very playful polar bear

Fantastic - they're such majestic animals.

We only have one captive polar bear here in the UK now at the Highland Wildlife park in Scotland. I'll be popping in with the camera when the better snow arrives.

It's an interesting story which you can see here.....
