German Polar Bear Cub Flocke Now Ten Weeks Old

This Reuters video shows the German polar bear cub named Flocke at ten weeks old. She is more mobile now but still obviously uncoordinated. At five weeks Flocke was just starting to open her eyes. Now at ten weeks and 16-pounds Reuters reports that zoo keepers say Flocke is trying to shred everything she can reach with her teeth and claws.

Some articles are referring to Flocke as the new Knut. Flocke is at the Nuremberg Zoo in Germany. The name "Flocke" means snowflake. The Zoo received over 500,000 emails when the asked for helping naming the polar bear cub. Here's the video.
