Canada Tourism Exploits Final Days of Knut's Cuteness

Where: Berlin, Germany
May 14, 2007 at 2:03 PM | by djk | 1 Comment


As world famous German polar bear cub Knut inches towards adulthood and becomes drastically less cute, what may be a final surge in cross-promotional activities rages on. The latest entity to snag a piece of Knut madness is the Canadian Tourism Commission, which recently sent the little guy a special Canada-branded ball to play with.

As the Brand Canada Blog points out, it's a small hint that Canada (and not Germany--who knew?) is a natural home of polar bears. You can even swim with them at the Polar Bear Habitat in Cochrane, Ontario, a good 450 miles north of Toronto.

    Cute Knut

    As he is gets older he is just as cute.  He is developing the distinguished and very handsome features of a majestic adult polar bear.  He should be just as popular as ever as he matures.  Many people love Knut for just being Knut -- even if he is developing into quite a handsome brute.
