Two male polar bears being cared for at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s (RZSS) Highland Wildlife Park are settling in well to their new habitat.


Keepers at the wildlife conservation charity have seen best friends Arktos and Walker exploring every inch of their new hilltop home, particularly enjoying diving into their natural pool. Their former habitat at the park will now be renovated in advance of Arktos' son, Brodie, returning later this year.
