Knut was born at the Berlin Zoo. After his mother rejected him and his twin brother died, zookeepers kept him alive in an incubator for 44 days while feeding him with a bottle. He made his public debut this week at his enclosure to the zoo and has been hamming it up ever since! He spends his days playing with twigs, rolling around with his blanket and covering himself with dirt...all in front of the paparazzi. He has also done a photo shoot with Annie Liebowitz and will be on the cover of Germany Vanity Fair.

Over the past couple of months, little Knut has become the unofficial mascot of Berlin and their ministry of the environment is leveraging him to bring awareness to climate change issues which I think is great. If this little guy can help polar bears everywhere then more power to him.
