The orphaned polar bear cubs are now on display. For those willing to donate to the polar bear rescue team they can cast a vote naming the boys. Choices are York, Tatnum, Eli and Aiken. I think it will be York and Eli.

Anyone wondering who the snow leopards in the new Telus commercial belong to? It's Assiniboine's own Batu and her boys Yuki and Kang.

I wonder if 2016 will see any more polar bears joining the zoo's big group. They will be getting close to capacity soon and all three girls are still a couple of years away from breeding with Storm or Hudson.
