Dancing On Ice: North American Black Bear Edition

Bears on Ice 

The North American black bears got up to some wintry ice-capades during the recent cold snap! 

When the freezing temperatures hit, mum Phoenix and her four adventurous yearlings, Harvard, Maple, Colorado and Aspen couldn't resist exploring the frozen pond in their enclosure. The solid icy surface became their personal playground as the young bears eagerly tested their "dancing on ice" skills.

The bears were spotted by keepers rolling around, slipping and sliding and fully embracing the frosty fun. The bears definetly put on a show for the keepers showing off their dancing on ice skills while enjoying a little play fight with each other.
