The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium has a new addition in the polar bear den. A polar bear cub weighing 1.5 pounds is being tended to by zoo staff after her mother Aurora stopped caring for her last week.
Polar bears have the lowest reproductive rates of all mammals. Aurora, the mother, and her 8-year-old twin Anana, arrived at the zoo in 2010. Both mated with a 28-year-old bear.
