Our Polar
Bear Cubs
The
Zoo's Glacier Run Exhibit is now home to
two polar bear cubs: Qannik, the young cub that
captured hearts the world over when she was
found alone on Alaska's north slope this past
April; and Siku, an older male cub from the
Toledo Zoo that arrived September 6.

here for
updates, photos and video of the bears.
CURRENT
VIEWING STATUS
Qannik:
Visitors are more likely to see Qannik from 10 a.m. - Noon and 2 - 4 p.m.
Her schedule is still unpredictable and can
change without notice. Thanks for your patience
and understanding.
Siku:
The new cub will be off-exhibit in quarantine
until sometime after the first of the year.
