Germany Hearts Polar Bears

Germans (and pretty much the rest of the world) lost their shit last year over Knut and Flocke, but those cuties are growing up quickly, as polar bears are apt to do. Have no fear, there is a new polar bear in Germany...Wilbaer! Officials at the Stuttgart zoo say that "Wilbaer will not be a commercial success" but the cuteness of polar bear cubs is force to powerful for mere mortals to reckon with. I think Knut, the original world famous adorable polar, is still my favorite, but it's hard to resist any baby animal in a basket.
