Well, behold: Now there is another adorable clip of a bear playing in the snow for animal lovers to ogle over. The [Toronto Zoo’s Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/TheTorontoZoo/videos/vb.237551556281297/962200760483036/?type=2&theater "undefined") has shared a video of its female polar bear cub seeing snow for the first time. Weighing just over 15 pounds, the yet-to-be-named little one turned three months old on Thursday, is just starting to eat meat, and is not yet on view for visitors. But at least she’s on view in video form. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4219701/polar-bear-toronto-zoo-snow-first-time/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4219701/polar-bear-toronto-zoo-snow-first-time/"},"headline":"Watch a Polar Bear Cub Experience Snow for the First Time","datePublished":"2016-02-12T18:19:45.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:30:02.011Z","description":"Too cute to bear","url":"https://time.com/4219701/polar-bear-toronto-zoo-snow-first-time/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Olivia B.
