It’s again time to meet the one and only Alaskan 🐻 BORIS.😍 27 years young and looking great! Best time to see Boris in his habitat is in the afternoon (around 2pm or so). Here’s beautiful Boris. ✌️❤️&🐻
Boris relaxing in his pool for a toothy day 😃
Boris found some lettuce
Yummy……bears sure do love romaine 😋
Boris exited the pool & making his way back behind the scenes. 😆
Boris is still shedding his winter coat, but he is looking great 😍
Sometimes Boris hangs out up top to enjoy his snackies…
Sometimes, he explores for more snackies 🤩
Oopsie….nothing in there (this time).
Wandering over to the other side….the side where the waterfall is still not working. Pump replacement continues to wait on the plumber. 🙄
Boris is about to head in because he is RETIRED 😍 See you next time, Side 👀 King!
Feiner Boris! 💓🥰🧸
Dear Michelle!
I’m very much in love with Boris. He’s a wonderful bear in the autumn of his life and really knows how to enjoy life. Thomas Dörflein, too, had a particular fondness for older and elderly bears and truly appreciated their character and personality.
I wish Boris many more tasty treats and a great many good years to come!
Hugs

Dear Michelle,
Boris understands perfectly well what it means to grow old with dignity, no matter how shaggy his coat is.
The main thing is a good appetite and enjoying his bath, so the vet should get round to him soon.
I’m not happy about the little wound on his leg and I hope it gets treated.
I wish Boris continued good health!
Many thanks and best wishes,
Britta-Gudrun
Dear Michelle,
Wow, Boris is really a senior bear, so glad he is doing well for his age. He is such a shaggy guy, all that magnificent fur. Quite the handsome Teddy Bear.
It looks like he knows how to keep cool in this terrible hot weather.

Boris beeindruckt immer wieder aufs Neue durch seine Größe, sein tolles Fell und seine Gelassenheit!
Er genießt den Tag und lässt es sich gut gehen!👍🐻😊
