How beary adorable! On February 25, a furry little polar bear cub at France's Mulhouse Zoological Park embarked on its first outing with its mother. The cub was born in Haut-Rhin on November 22, which marked a rare occurence in the country.

"This is the fifth birth of a viable polar bear for more than twenty years in France, the second in Mulhouse," the zoo noted, adding that they hope the animal's presence will bring more awareness to global warming, one of the factors that are causing the species to become "vulnerable" to extinction.

The World Wildlife Foundation states "survival and the protection of the polar bear habitat" are important issues for the organization, so if you want to help out the critters, you can donate money to Polar Bears International.

According to the WWF, there are currently between 22,000 and 31,000 polar bears roaming the earth, but this little cub is certainly one of the cutest!
