We've had a busy few days.

Both bears leave almost simultaneously, and for a long time. Grizzly Green goes to Altai for two weeks, and Polar Potap goes to Crimea for a month. So we checked them thoroughly and patched them up so that they wouldn’t let us down.

Potapych finally had the broken window we got him with replaced. The German window gave way to the domestic one. Looks great. If it survives the journey to Crimea and back, maybe we’ll replace all the others with the same ones so that we have a complete set.

We generally have a lot of plans for the modernization and restyling of Potapych :)

For him, this trip will most likely be his last this season. He will spend the winter hibernating.

But Grizlik, after returning, will only take a temporary break in order to further increase his set of winter equipment, and begin the winter watch at the peak of his form.
