"ISN'T SHE BEAUTIFUL?"
She's 34 pounds of pure...what's the word.
"SHE'S REALLY CUTE."
"SHE WAS CUTE"
Cute and curious.
"Chinook's" four-month old cub came out of the den today...and dozens were on hand for a first glimpse.
"I JUST HAVEN'T SEEN A POLAR BEAR."
"WE WATCHED THIS VIDEO ON POLAR BEARS AT SCHOOL."
Sniff...stand up...maybe hide and seek...today this young audience learned cubs, well, are a lot like kids -- a little curious..but cautious when mom's not around.
"SHE WENT AND GRABBED THAT BIG LOG AND IT STARTED ROLLING AND SHE GOT OUT OF THERE PRETTY QUICK."
Swimming...hmm, maybe not....
Doug Tomkinson/Hogle Zoo "SHE'LL FALL IN ACCIDENTALLY, MOM JUMPS IN AND GUIDES HER OUT OF THE POOL.
No scolding...afterall, this little cub still needs a name...
Her new fans had a few ideas.
"SNOWBALL"
"PEACHES"
"SHANIA"
"SPARKLE"
"ASHLEY"
"CUTIE"
Now if you've got an idea of your own...Hogle Zoo is holding a contest...
