Au Revoir! Flocke Flees For France
With all the talk of Knut and his Italian mate, Gianna, it seems the world had nearly forgotten about that other totally adorable (maybe even more so?) polar bear. That is, until now.
Nuremberg Zoo's Flocke, who turns two this December, departs Deutschland for France come early 2010.
Flocke Doesn't Need Fancy Props to Be Super-Cute
Flocke didn't kick the bucket (literally), but boy did she have some fun with one. The hands-down winner of the cutest polar bear poll turned 8 months old today. While I loved her divine dancing skills, I also can't get enough of her playing with DIY toys over in Nuremberg Zoo — hey, there's no need for fancy props with a face that adoro.
Flocke's Public Debut of Dancing Skills
OK, maybe she's not technically dancing but doesn't she look like she's about to drop it like it's hot?! Flocke already knows how to pose for the camera and it's only her first week of public appearances – she'll be a lil superstar for sure. Because you know I think this bear is the cutest of them all – especially when she busts a move – check out more piccys when you read more

Look familiar? She should. Not too long ago, we watched Flocke (German for snowflake) sleep and snore away her first few weeks in a Nuremberg zoo.
Friday Mythbuster: Elephants and Mice
If you recall the film featuring this big-eared pachyderm and his animated mouse pal, you'll remember he wasn't too keen about meeting this rodent. Now, I'm not sure where the idea that elephants are scared of mice originated from, but I'd like to take the time to assure you, it's not entirely true!
Think about it.
The Scoop: Welcome Flocke!
It's official — this 5-week-old polar bear cub has been named Flocke by zookeepers in Nuremberg today. They'd already affectionately dubbed the fuzzy one with that name meaning "flake" and ended up sticking to it. This baby was rescued after mother bear, Vera, appeared to be increasingly aggressive towards the cub, picking her up and dropping her .
Cute Alert! Baby Polar Bear Snores
Remember the sleepy polar bear we met last week? Well, the photos didn't reveal that this month-old little gal is quite the energetic napper. She fidgets, she snores, and when a nightmare strikes, her little paws pick up the pace.
