GOLD COAST, Australia (Reuters) — Sea World Australia’s three-month-old polar bear cub started a new stage in her development last week with her keepers introducing her to ‘Cub Kindy.’
The ‘Cub Kindy’ enclosure was especially designed for the cub at Sea World on the Gold Coast which “allows for the cub to develop her life-skills and explore new substrates such as shaved ice all under the watchful eye of doting mum, Liya,” said Sea World Australia in a statement.
With the cub enjoying its new surroundings, Sea World is running a naming competition for the youngster which has seen over 20,000 votes cast since voting opened.
According to Sea World, the name Mishka is proving to be the favorite at this stage in the voting.
