Knut Is Cute

Has anyone else been following this story?

"The Berlin zoo's polar bear cub Knut made its first public appearance today. Fascination with him has grown in recent days, when an animal activist insisted that the cub would have been better off dead than raised by humans. After giving birth last year, his mother abandoned Knut and his twin brother. The keepers rescued them and raised the cubs themselves. Only Knut survived after spending 44 days in an incubator."
