Toronto Zoo’s Polar Bear Cub Takes Adorable First Crawling Steps – Plus, a Special Birthday Blessing Today.
This little guy was one of a litter of three, born at Toronto Zoo on November 11, 2013. His two siblings dіed, and it looked for a while that he’d ѕᴜffeг the same fate. But Zoo officials decided to transfer the cub to their Wildlife Health Centre, where he was put in an incubator and given ’round-the-clock care. Today, the cub is developing a thicker coat, growing whiskers, teething as his molars and incisors grow in, drinking milk six times a day, learning to lap milk from a dish, and playing. It’s also beginning to take its first steps on all four legs.
