28 February 2008 by Stuttgart zoo Wilhelma shows polar bear cub 'Wilbaer' born in December 2007. The zoo unveils the polar bear cub at a press conference 28 February 2008, media and visitors to the Wilhelma zoo will not get a view on 'Wilbaer' until further notice. EPA/WILHELMA ZOO/HO Stuttgart's Wilhelma zoo announced Thursday that one of its polar bears gave birth to a male cub on Dec. 10 — Germany's latest high-profile bear arrival, following Berlin zoo star Knut and Nuremberg celebrity Flocke.

But unlike the others, little Wilbaer's mother Corinna hasn't abandoned him. She's a good bear mummy."Corinna is taking exemplary care of her offspring," zoo director Dieter Jauch said.

However, he added that the zoo has had his name — a combination of the zoo's name and the German for bear, "Baer" — registered as a trademark.
