Love was not in the air.
These two suitors were expressing great interest,
but their lady friends were not impressed.
At least not yesterday.
Maybe today will be their day. I hope so.
I’d like to see baby polar bears!
Do you know the gestation period for polar bears?
Anywhere between 190-260 days.
Aren’t you glad your due date wasn’t that vague?


i love the sprawl. my daughter’s cat lays the same way.
It’s always fun when the big animals remind us of our own pets, isn’t it?
We’ve been watching Attenborough’s Africa series and both my kids reminded me that I’ve commented before I’m glad I didn’t have a pregnancy as long as an elephants…
Isn’t that the truth!
Those polar bears are adorable. I once saw a baby elephant at the zoo in DC. I think I was 16. It died a few months later and I remember being heart broken over it. The baby was so playful and cute running under it’s mothers legs. It must have gotten sick or something. Now that I have read so much about Elephant culture and family life I feel so sad for the mother.
I remember that baby elephant! Would that have been in the early 90′s? She lived just over a year, I think. It was sad.
