Bjorn the Polar Bear

Come nose to snout with one of the world’s deadliest – and fluffiest - predators, a life size polar bear called Bjorn - he walks, he growls and you may even get to stroke him! Bjorn, a giant pod puppet, is incredibly lifelike and is accompanied by his ‘keeper’ Ursula who provides a lively and informative natural history commentary, as members from the audience will be invited to interact with the enormous creature. Bjorn the Polar Bear is brought to the museum by performers Los Kaos. Shows at 10.30am, 12.30pm and 2.30pm. Each show lasts approximately 25 minutes.
