Polar bear Mercedes on the move

Britain's only polar bear is settling into her new home.

Mercedes has been moved from Edinburgh Zoo to a four-acre enclosure at Highland Wildlife Park in Invernessshire.

The enclosure, which aims to recreate a tundra environment, contains a public viewing platform.

Mercedes (apparently she's named after the car company which assisted with the costs of her transport) has been in Edinburgh since 1984. She was rescued from Canada after almost getting shot for roaming into a town.

There are some pictures of her on The Times's website.

But, before we all get carried away with how beautiful polar bears are, remember this picture of one biting someone.
