Fifteen-month-old Juno was born in the Toronto facility in November 2015.
Next week she will be moved to the Journey to Churchill exhibit in Winnipeg, where she will be given opportunities to socialize and engage with other polar bears her age.
Juno is the little sister of Hudson and Humphrey, two Toronto-born polar bear brothers who spent a few years at the Winnipeg zoo before returning home last year.

They are both living at the Leatherdale International Polar Bear Conservation Centre, and are close to Juno芒鈧劉s age.

芒鈧揌aving Juno come to Assiniboine Park Zoo will give her the opportunity to learn from and develop alongside other polar bears her age. This will be very beneficial to her as she continues to mature."
