A Beautiful Year with Knut

One year ago, on January 23 2007, there was the very first report on TV about the Berlin Zoo raising a polar bear cub. What an amazing year this was. Here is a collage I made of some of my photos and videos to celebrate this special day - and a very special relationship.

This is the only YouTube video that's ever made me cry. Thank you, Christina; I've subscribed to your channel.

btw: Are you sure the singer is Joshua Kadison? It sounds like Elton John to me.

@StrawberryTortoise - thank you very much for your comment! Yes it is Joshua Kadison - if you type in the YouTube-search Joshua Kadison Beautiful in my eyes, the first hit you get is the original music video. I always loved the song very much.. Lots of greetings Christina

how is Knut doing now after Thomas died did it affect him a lot ? very nice vid

[ChristinaM2007]

@theaxman00 - thank you! When you look at my other videos you can see new videos of Knut, he is doing fine although I wish he could live in a more modern and more naturelike enclosure. Thomas death affected the people who knew and loved him a lot more than it affected Knut as Knut was already used to his "Daddy" being away some times, and he did not know what happened...

Rest in Peace Thomas. I'm touched. Thank you for sharing this video. Could you please tell me what's the title of the song and the artist? Thanks

[ChristinaM2007]

@Shaselle1 - thank you for your comment - it is "Beautiful in my Eyes" by Joshua Kadison. One of my favourite songs.

Thank you Christina. God bless you Thomas Doerflein. Rest in peace.

This is absolutely incredible. The music is perfect. Precious Knut and his beloved

Mr. Doerflein were in perfect harmony with each other from the start and it is expressed so beautifully in the last photo especially. The bonding was so strong that surely their being separated had an adverse effect on Mr. Doerflein's health. He is missed by all his fans so much but he will live on in your wonderful Webshots and Youtube entries.

Fantastico. Due Angeli volati in Paradiso.

The both died so young! It's really too sad. I hope they are in heaven together rolling around by big waterfall.

This just goes to show, that humans and animals are capable of living in harmony and getting along!

wow!!! que lindo vídeo como se notaba que el señor Doerflein y el oso se querían mucho que ternura verlos jugar. Lastima que ya no están vivos hacían un buen equipo.
