Wednesday, March 21, 2007

It seems that Berlin's little polar bear Knut is becoming famous - judging by the number of people finding their way here from around the world. So here's a round-up of the latest pictures of Knut, the baby polar bear from Berlin, Germany. (Most of the pages linked are in German, but the photo, videos etc. are easy to find).

• Berlin's Zoo has a page full of Knut pictures and images here
• Knut's "homepage" - at local TV station RBB - is here
• Knut's blog (also at RBB) is here
• and there are some desktop backgrounds here
• A local newspaper, the Morgenpost, has another picture gallery here
• Another newspaper, the Tagesspiegel, also has a picture gallery here
• Yet another newspaper, Welt: here

Added: some recent amateur photos

Added: Youtube videos of Knut

Update: Knut is currently on show at the Zoo. He can be visited daily between 11am and 12pm, and 2pm - 3pm. Note that he won't be with the other polar bears; instead you can see Knut at the spectacled bears' enclosure (Brillenbärfreianlage). Just follow the crowds.

Added: recent Knut pictures

Update: get your very own Knut EC bank card from the Berliner Volksbank. More info (in German) here.

Most blogs about Berlin are written by humans, but one exception is disgustingly cute polar bear baby Knut, who at the tender age of just three months is already posting regularly to his own blog on local TV channel RBB's website. Even if you don't read German, the pictures speak a thousand words.
