    The polar bear Yoshi, that belongs to the Russian "Circus on Ice" and was kept in the zoo of Saint Petersburg, has been brought to Rostov on Don. He has arrived there safely.

    The three polar bears that have been in Rostov for the last five years, have been brought to Moscow.

    (Sorry, my article is only in German, I haven't had enough time for an translation.)

    My husband and I are looking for information about the polar bears in Russian Zoos. For example: We have problems to identify on the photos from the zoo of moscow, which bear is Wrangel and which is Umca. So we need photos with the names of the polar bears. Perhaps there is somebody who could help us.
