Popular bear Knut
Recently in Germany was broken the record for the number of tourists visiting the Berlin Zoo. From Thursday until Monday been there almost 100 thousand people. All they wanted to see polar bear cub Knut four months (Knut). Despite the fact that the zoo administration has invited 17 law enforcement officers near the cage with bears reigned incredible jam. Some visitors, spending 10 minutes in the cage, did not want to give place to the other, also come to look at the crowd favorite. On average, to see the bear, you had to queue for about two hours.
Due to the popularity of Knut, the German capital was visited by a record number of guests. Local authorities say that such an influx of tourists was observed in 2004 when the painting was brought to Berlin from New York's Museum of Modern Art, and then - in 2006, during the FIFA World Cup.
Knut was born in December of last year in the Berlin Zoo.
Bear Tosca (Tosca) threw a newborn baby and his two twin brothers almost immediately after their birth. Twins almost immediately killed and Knut took the lead in one of the zoo, Dёrflyayn Thomas (Thomas Doerflein).
Adoptive father was forced to personally live in the aviary whip to take care of the bear around the clock. He fed the beast from the bottle, washed it, and even a guitar singing songs of Elvis Presley.
However, his touching dedication displeased some animal rights advocates. They stated that a permanent human presence may adversely affect the young one, that is, it does not bring up the animal and the human principle.
Activists have launched a campaign to fight for the rights of the whip. They demanded to immediately stop its interaction with people, regardless of the fact that this will lead to the death of a newborn cub.
Animal advocates have made a number of abusive statements that they can not be expected. They argued that since the mother herself left child, so with him that something is wrong, and his death would be a logical result of natural selection, while saving Knut zoologists disturb the natural course of events. Zoo staff hold a different point of view and consider the arguments of opponents idiotic. The day before they officially rejected a proposal to kill Knut.
Now the fate of the bear watching the whole of Germany.
