That's so sad. He's a beautiful polar bear. I'm sure he is enjoying the weather up there right now, too! #1351212

Actually Polar Bears are solitary animals except for moms with cubs.

Thanks for your comment, Karen! I appreciate it!

I feel his loneliness. It just seems cruel, somehow.

On the other hand, there are lots of households with a single pet... #9220109
