The Newest, Cutest Baby Animals from the World's Zoos & Aquariums
On Thursday, Rotterdam Zoo visitors had the priviledge of seeing Polar Bear cub Vicks, born December 6th, explore the outside world for the first time. The cub, whose sex is still unknown, had spent the first months of life in a maternity den with mother Olinka. The increasingly precocious cub spent the day frolicking around the exhibit and even had his first swimming lesson.

Oh, my goodness. SO cute! And the look on the Mom’s face in the water? She looks sooooo blissful and happy. Thank you for sharing these great photos!
did you hear from knut’s death? it’s terrible 🙁
I read about that. Just stabbed me in the heart. I’m still confused about how he died. They don’t seem to know. Only 4 years old and adored by so many.
