Video provided courtesy of the Berlin Zoo shows the adorable moments when an as yet unnamed newly born polar bear cub took his first steps. A camera captured Berlin Zoo’s newest Arctic addition trying and failing to stand up on the floor of his private enclosure Tonja, the mother polar bear, is breastfeeding her cub every couple of hours and keeping close watch over the little one as he scrambles about on the hay.

The cub weighed just over 1 pound when it was born last month. The gender of the little bear hasn't yet been determined, but by the time polar bears are fully grown, males weigh nearly one thousand pounds and females weigh up to 550.

Tonja gave birth to twins on November third, but, unfortunately, one of the pair died, a fact which is not uncommon in the wild. The cub was kept under special care by zoo staff and veterinarians for a month, common practice for zoos with newborn bear cubs, before press were even allowed to photograph the baby animal.
