At the free Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago we ran in to this little rascal. I don't know her name but she was the most active and playful zoo animal I've even seen. She was awesome. Brian and I watched her for about 1/2 an hour and then came back to watch her some more. She reminded us of our dog, Ryley... by her looks and curiosity.
See the resemblance? They definitely make the same "long face" expression.
This polar bear loved to play. She picked out this particular toy and the barrel. She kept putting the toy inside the barrel and then getting stuck in the barrel. IT WAS SOOOO CUTE!
The polar bear had bones to chew on. She was flicking this one in the air before she lost it at the bottom of the pool.
Here is a video of the polar bear wandering around her habitat and doing a Swan Dive. I tell you this polar bear was AWESOME!
We weren't the only ones interested in watching the polar bears. I was glued to the window just like the kiddos :)
This isn't the clearest picture, but it was amazing how she would make eye contact and actually take a look at all of her admirers.
Check out this cool video of the bear swimming by all of the spectators.
This was definitely one of the best parts of our trip to Chicago. It makes me want a cute cuddly big ol' polar bear... ok, maybe not. But it would be awesome to watch this little lady all of the time. Will definitely go back and see her if I make it back to Chicago. Ta Ta.
