18 Mar Polar Bear Cubs Ventured Out Just In Time!

Look at these cuties!!! How adorable are they?  These two where born on December 14, 2007 at the Netherland’s Ouwehands Zoo.  This morning, for the first time, they ventured out into the zoo’s main polar-bear enclosure.

I’ve gotta say they have perfect timing. Today is the day the U.S, Norway, Canada, Russia, and Denmark will gather for a three day closed-door meeting to review their policy on protecting the world’s polar bears.

Global warming is shrinking the ice caps which polar bears need to hunt seals, which is their primary source of food.  This is why there is only (an estimated) 25,000 polar bears left in the world.

Please save the Polar Bears 🙂
