Moscow: polar bear cub saved
January 31, 2006The orphaned cub was only a few months old, near death from starvation. Villagers saw the dogs closing in. They put it in the electricity station, the only warm place in an area suffering from record cold temperatures.
A hunter fed it walrus meat and seal fat by hand. The little bear, named Dumka by its rescuers, will be moved to the Moscow Zoo.
