We went to the Berlin Zoo on Saturday. So I got to see Knut and sit and watch him for a bit. He is getting to be quite a big guy and has a regular fan club of older ladies that visit him regularly and show pictures and share stories about him.
He doesn’t look like this anymore:
All young and little and white and clean. He looks, well, like this:
But I think he is still quite cute. He has a gentleness about him. There were the stories earlier this year about him eating the fish in the water around him and this made animal rights people angry. Hello! Polar Bear! And then there was the shock when he snapped through the glass at a toddler.
Good God. He is a POLAR BEAR!
Well, I love him.
