Love Story in Orsa – Part 2
Sep 15th, 2009 | By mervi | Category: Featured articles15.9.2009 – Press release from Orsa Grönklitt, Photos by Anders Björklund
In the photos you can see Wilbär demonstrating his skils playing with a plastic can. With a never ending energy he tries to make the can sink. He listens to the gurgling sound from the can, he balances it on his nose, throws it into the water so he can dive after it.
The keepers in Orsa Polar World are doing a great job trying to make the life of the bears as fun and exciting as possible.
We are already making plans for the birthday celebrations of our polar bears. Eva has birthday on 26. November and Wilbär on 10. December. Welcome to the birthday parties!!
I can also mention that during Eva’s and Wilbär’s first summer in Orsa the amount of visitors increased by 70 % !
Greetings from Torbjörn Wallin
In Swedish:
Wilbär visar några av sina lekar, i detta fall med en plastdunk. Outtröttligt försöker han i flera timmar att få dunken att sjunka. Han stannar till och lyssnar på kluckandet i dunken, han balanserar den på nosen, kastar den i vattnet för att dyka efter den.
Isbjörnsskötarna vid Polar World i Orsa Björnpark gör ett stort jobb för att göra vardagen spännande och rolig för djuren. Under hösten planeras nu för isbjörnarnas födelsedag: 26 november fyller Eva år, och den 10 december fyller Wilbär år. -Välkommen till firandet!
Under Eva och Wilbärs första sommar vid Polar World i Orsa har besöksantalet ökat vid Orsa Björnpark med ca 70 %!
Hälsningar från Torbjörn Wallin

Dear Mervi, again and again a billion thanks for these pictures. I can only repeat myself that we are all happy and blessed people for having you to install these contacts. And therefore, I agree with Gitta, if ever possible, please go and visit them again. And that the number of visitors has increased by 70% is no wonder at all. On the basis of your report and pics and what others tell, it seems to be a wonderful enclosure. But most of all, I think that they have also learned to take profit of the interest for polar bears (and Orsa was smart enough to do that immediately !!!) that has been growing since in December 2006 a small bear was born and raised in Zoo Berlin. Orsa knows how to take advantage of it and who can blame them.
Well, maybe you can ask your “Santa Claus” to offer an extra present (but then you have to be a nice girlie).

Mervi,
As everyone else has said, “Wonderful!!” It is so satisfying that Wilbar, who was a fine son to a wonderful mother, Corinna, is able to live in such a beautiful polar bear home with an obviously beloved friend. What is also great is that you (Mervi) have made it possible for us to see Wilbar in his new home on a regular basis.
Thank you, Sarsam
o.k., Mervi…it is clear to me that this bear has taken lessons from knuti on how to have fun–cause he is doing one heckava job playing….absolutely delightful fotos and one happy bear….xo k-j
Thank you Mervi for wonderful photos and report from Wilbear in Sweden!
Mervi, just THANK YOU once more.
It’s raining news right now from Orsa. How wonderful! Is it Christmas already?!?

Dear Mervi,
thank you so much for having contacted Orsa and them sending these lovely reports. The way they play with the cans in the water is alsways similar. This similarity I also saw in Nuremberg yesterday. What a fun they have and these pictured news fill my heart for them with great joy.
Hugs from caren
Mervi – I haven’t had the time to visit and comment as much as before but my heart is still here and I love anything on my beloved bears. I am so proud of Wilbar…..he’s the newest cutie on the block. And Ewa is a great gal. Such happiness should be contagious!
Dear Mervi!
The pictures are wonderful. Now we have another two bear kids with birthday parties!
Dear Mervi, Thank you for getting us information about Ewa and Wilbar!
Christine
Mervi, Mervi thank you, thank you. Wilbar is a beautiful polar bear and has so much energy and Ewa is the nice girl. Send my greetings for the Orsa people, they make a great job
