Knut the Polar Bear Is Sick

Knut, the adorable little polar bear who has stolen the hearts of the world, is reportedly not feeling well and has been temporarily taken off display. He will undergo a treatment of antibiotics and be given lots of rest.

“At the moment he is resting on his blanket and sleeping,” Schuele said, adding that despite his lethargy Knut did eat his regular meal in the morning.

While I am not a fan of zoos, I do think the "animal rights activists" who say Newt should have been euthanized rather than be raised in a zoo are completely out of their minds. I don't believe those types of activists really care about the welfare of animals. They see things in a black and white way and don't look at each individual case.

I consider myself to be an "animal rights" person as well as a "human rights" person. All creatures should be treated fairly and humanely. We wouldn't put a perfectly healthy human being "to sleep" because it couldn't live in its natural habitat.

Do any of us live in our natural habitats, anyway? Knut may not have an ideal life for a polar bear, but he has a right to live and no person who truly cared about animals would think otherwise.

Get well soon, Knut!

The bear has been raised by humans, although has retained instincts from birth but it wouldn't survive by himself out in the wild.

Now a days Resveratrol considered as the most potent anti oxidant of 21st century. Resveratrol is found in the skin of certain plants such as red grapes, raspberries, mulberries, blueberries, cranberries and red wine. It is mostly concentrated in red wine. It is known as 'phytolexin', which is produced by plants to fight the bacterial and fungal infections of the plant.

The time is nine o'clock sharp and the instant his door swings open Knut, the world's most famous polar bear and Berlin Zoo's pride and joy, bounds out of his man-made rock house and into his man-made rock enclosure with carefully crafted boulders before stopping at the Perspex-fronted viewing area where he starts his morning show.

With the loss of ice flow with global warming Polar Bears have now lost habitat and no longer have the expanse of ice to roam. So Canada still allows this magnificent animal to be shot for fun. I thought the torture and killing of seal pups a few days old was sick but this is diabolical.

Hi. I just needed to tell you that some elements of your website are hard to comprehend for me, as I'm color blind. I suffer from deuteranopia, but there are other kinds of color blindness that may also get difficulties. I will understand the majority of the site OK, and the elements I have issues with I am able to understand by using a custom browser. In any case, it'd be great if you could remember we color-blind types while carrying out your next site design. Thanks.
