Beach Boys in Yorkshire

27.6.2025 – Photos by Pat Waldron

Our white giant friends in the Yorkshire Wildlife Park how to be cool bears in every meaning of the word. Of course, they spend a lot of time in the Lake Polar Bear now that the weather is warm – or very hot.

Despite the heat Indie was very active in the water. He presented his new toy for the visitors.

Even Luka had found something to play with.

The toy was a bit worn out but Luka was happy having it.

Nobby was having a nap when he heard Hamish calling him.

I’m a Finnish Viking and the hot weather is no challenge for me! I can cope with anything and everything!!

However, I’m still a very humble guy – at least I think so!

Yuma and Luka were having a discussion about the day’s agenda.
