As you know, now and then we suspend our usual obsesssion with grotesque fashions for men and womenstrange careers, dumb criminals and sickening cuisine, to offer up an adorable creature, instead.

Today’s “awwwwwwww!” moment comes courtesy of a very small polar bear cub in Germany, much like Knut, one of last year’s most popular animals.
