Cuteness alert! 4 month old polar bear

Great set of images and touching narrative! Thanks!!

 

Wonderful images, and thanks for sharing the story.

 

Great images and lots of fun to see.

 

I've heard of this little guy, the animal rights people wanted him to die because he can't be raised "naturally". The Berlin Zoo should be congratulated that a sense of humaneness overcame political correctness. Letting him live was said to be "abuse".

Thank you for sharing these, it makes him more real and appreciated for his beauty and intrinsic worth rather than his circumstances.

 

Wonderful set, even better the full one at your site. Thanks!

 

I heard about this bear cub on the (CBS?) news last week. Thanks for posting the pictures.

I wonder what will happen as the bear gets bigger. Will his "Mom" continue to wrestle with him? :biggrin:

 

As a member of the Colbert Nation, I say :

'Threatdown: Bears!'

 

Very cute series. It must have been very interesting to see him in person. We've heard about him in the news. Thanks for posting.

 

You did it Daniel, you're the one bringing Knut to the world!

I really like your pictures much better then the costly Jamba-mobile-phone-pics advertised on TV :Crunk:

 

My apologies, I projected American craziness on another's country. "Animal Rights" is a protected political theory here. I'm glad it hasn't spread as far as I had feared.

 

Cute!

 

Awwww, that's the little cutie they've been talking about on the news! I'm so glad the zoo stepped in and decided he was just too valuable to let die! I think he should be a symbol of just how caring people can be! Beautiful photos and wonderful documentation!

 

Daniel, thanks so much for sharing Knut with us! All your shots, including all the ones in your gallery are fantastic and I appreciated the difficulty you must have had, trying to shoot within the framework of such a large crowd.

As to Knut, what an adorable little cutie-pie he is! :biggrin:

 

Definitely high on the cuteness scale. Thanks very much for posting.

 

Very nice shots Daniel, it hard to choose one i like more than the others.

Not wanting to get political, but in responce to toby's post, i have serious issues with "animal rights" people... kill the bear as it would be raised by humans... well that to me makes it better adjusted to live in a zoo than a wild caught bear forced to live in a zoo... and my personal favourite, release american mink from fur farms in the uk so they can kill some of our native animals and make them close to extinction...

 

I am just totally in awe of this whole series.
Precious little guy:>)))
It is very good to save Polar Bears:>))
(won't get into some folks idiocy)

Thanks you very much for the story and images of Knut...(ibelieve pronounced noot here) :>)

I hope more Polar Bears are raised and saved. Global warming is making it rough on the Polar Bears in the wild to survive, along with many other animals and birds.
