美國俄亥俄州哥倫布動物園(Columbus Zoo and Aquarium)5周前迎來一隻北極熊寶寶,當時全身短短白毛加上粉紅色耳朵立即吸引網友關注。接受人工照顧的北極熊寶寶成長良好,動物園方在粉絲團中,再上傳一部超萌睡覺短片,緊靠著大玩偶睡覺的北極熊寶寶可愛度爆表,讓網友瘋狂分享。
目前5周大,正接受飼育員24小時完整照顧的北極熊寶寶,體重準備要超過2公斤,身長也來到40公分左右。園方指出,牠(北極熊寶寶)已經開始張眼,但眼睛還沒全開,一天吃6餐的牠已經開想要用四肢站立,特別是準備吃飯的時候最明顯。
有趣的是,動物園還替北極熊寶寶準備一隻咖啡色的大玩偶,在分享的影片中也看見牠總是緊靠玩偶睡覺,而且熟睡時還會伸出粉嫩舌頭,讓不少看過影片的網友直呼「可愛」,還有喜歡聞小狗腳掌的網友問道,牠的手、腳掌是什麼味道?也引起網友針對「味道」的部分進行熱議。一分多鐘的影片,不到一天就吸引近30萬人次觀看,近8千人分享。

POLAR BEAR CUB UPDATE: At 5 weeks old, the polar bear cub is doing very well; she weighs a little over 4 pounds and measures 16 inches long! Both eyes have started to open as of yesterday, but they are not fully open yet. The care staff says the sound that she makes in the video is of contentment. Her motor skills are improving each day and she has started trying to stand up on all fours, especially when she’s ready for her next meal! She is on six feedings a day, every four hours. The team has been evaluating her daily needs and provides care 24/7.
