After the death of a newborn polar bear last month, the staff at the Toronto Zoo had to take matters into their own hands. A mother bear, Aurora, gave birth on Nov. 11 and within 24 hours her male cub died. Aurora was producing very little milk, so the staff at the Toronto Zoo took the sister cub, Juno, away from her mother to be hand-reared. The effort has kept a team of twenty veterinarians and technicians busy day and night, as reported by The Globe and Mail.
