if you cover them in chocolate first there is. I've never heard of anybody that only did frozen bananas though. You're going to need to freeze some grapes. Probably gonna want to do up some chocolate covered strawberries too. Also, pancakes.

Zoos aren't exactly the happiest place in the world. Unless you're human.

[–]ThatsSoKafkaesque 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

To be fair, your assumption that zoos are unhappy places to live is likely false, because you assume the same things about zoos that would make you unhappy will also make animals unhappy. Anthropomorphism can lead to unrealistic assumptions about animal psychology.

That looks mean... If I was that bear I'd be like "fuck that human, they can make ice so they fucking show off by freezing my godamn apples. I never even seen a fucking apple before, have you seen an apple in the north fucking pole? No! WTF is this shit?"

[–]willymo 37 points38 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's very much the opposite of mean. They do this to encourage the polar bears to eat/lick the ice during the summer. If anything, putting a polar bear in a hot zoo is the mean part.

[–]lordofthederps 44 points45 points ago

Why not a bottle of Coke?

If there's anything I've learned from mainstream media over the years, it's that polar bears want ice-cold Coca-Cola.

This is typically done in the warmer months. It is a fun cold treat for the animals.

[–]gmoney99 4 points5 points ago

I dont think its mean. According to Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, you can feed your pets Ice Fruit or Meat - Just like this, so apprently the animal likes licking to the center of a toostie pop. Or maybe its our way of giving the animal food and them trying to kill it like they were in the wild still.

Pour water into container, add apples, freeze. When solid, add more water and apples to the container, freeze again. Add more water to complete the applesicle, freeze a final time.
