Love! Watch Polar Bear Making Snow Angels

If you are a polar bear, you loved Wednesday's snow.

Talini, one of the polar bears at the Detroit Zoo’s Arctic Ring of Life exhibit, became an Internet sensation after rolling in the fresh snow Wednesday. A video on the zoo’s Facebook page has been viewed and shared thousands of times.

Talini is a female born in 2004 at the zoo, which boasts the largest polar bear exhibit in North America. She spends most of her time in the 70-foot-long, 8-foot-tall and 12-foot-wide Barbara Erb Polar Passage, a clear tunnel that winds through an underwater marine environment.

The Arctic Ring of Life, a $14.9 million facility that encompasses more than four acres of outdoor and indoor exhibits, also houses Arctic foxes and seals.
