Twin Polar Bear Cubs Celebrate Turning 1 With Joint Birthday Party
Neva and Nuniq feasted on fish-filled birthday cakes, played with brightly colored blocks of ice and did birthday laps around their pool.
It was twice the birthday fun as a pair of polar bear twins celebrated their special day together.
Twin cubs Neva and Nuniq feasted on fish-filled birthday cakes, played with brightly colored blocks of ice and did birthday laps around their pool as they celebrated turning a year old.
Despite only weighing a couple pounds at birth, Neva now weighs 247 pounds and her brother Nuniq weighs a whopping 397 pounds.
The pair was born on Nov. 14, 2016 to mother polar bear Aurora, who is a twin herself.
Aurora’s twin sister, Anana, also welcomed a cub a week before Neva and Nuniq were born.
Neva, means “white snow” and Nuniq was named after the pair’s late father.
Their names were a result of a naming contest held to raise money for wildlife conservation around the world.
