Nature has most awe-inspiring sights and magnificent happenings in our planet's majesty. Once in a while our mind just drift away as we browse through beautiful places in the world.

Arts, drawing and graphics do the same wonders as beautiful places. Beautiful mysterious scenes easily attract attentions and tenderly embrace our sensual desires. Nature and greenery offers fresh secret delights that is not possible in our always busy world.


Dark fantasy or erotic little extras lift our spirit beyond the normal expectation and caused irregular heart-beats. We are ingenious in creating what others like but unable to offer. As usual, whatever is God's permitted pleasures, we can go ahead and enjoy. But remember that our appreciation for our creator's creations should not surpasses our love for our creator.

Of all the many animals that Mr Mohan Ponichamy has cared for, Inuka was by far the most famous and loved by Singaporeans, said the Wildlife Reserves Singapore (WRS) deputy head keeper.

"For the first time... We didn't walk into the den this morning to see a cheery Inuka greeting us. The space was empty," he said.

He was speaking at a private tribute ceremony for Inuka yesterday at the Singapore Zoo, where more than 400 zoo workers and guests paid their last respects to the first and only polar bear born in Singapore.

The Frozen Tundra at the zoo was packed with guests, many donning blue or white - a nod to the symbolic colours of Inuka and its enclosure.

Commemorative light blue ribbons were also passed around and worn by staff and guests, after a box of the ribbons was left at Inuka's enclosure by an anonymous visitor yesterday morning.

Inuka, 27, born here in 1990, was the first polar bear to be born in the tropics.

Conservationists and animal rights activists have campaigned against the presence of polar bears in Singapore since their introduction to the national zoo in 1978.
Following animal welfare discussions, the zoo announced in 2006 that it would not bring in any more polar bears after Inuka.

His name means Silent Stalker in the Inuit language
The fussy eater enjoyed salmon the most
Keepers said he loved taking dips in his private pool and enjoyed "hydro massages under his waterfall"
A "cheeky and inquisitive soul", he was known to invent his own games and would even hide his toothbrush from his care team -

It was put down humanely on Wednesday after a medical check that day showed little improvement in his failing health.

Inuka, which would have been well into its 70s in human years, had been suffering from age-related ailments such as arthritis, dental issues and occasional ear infections for the past five years.

HUMANE
In a speech, Mr Mike Barclay, group chief executive of Mandai Park Holdings, thanked Inuka's dedicated keepers for their care of the bear.

"Inuka's end came in the most humane way possible, with his keepers, both past and present, in attendance," he said.



Singapore has released pictures showing the last moments of polar bear Inuka before he passed away.

The ceremony began with Inuka's keepers going forward to put up pictures of the polar bear over the years to mark milestones such as birthdays.

White roses were placed in front of each framed photograph by representatives from WRS and Singapore Press Holdings Foundation, which has supported Inuka since its birth, as well as Inuka's care team.

Finally, a minute of applause was held as a tribute to the bear.

The zoo has also set up a memorial wall at the Frozen Tundra, where members of the public can pen tributes and bid farewell to Inuka. The memorial will be up till May 5.

In his tribute, Mr Ponichamy spoke of how fun-loving and "kaypoh" (nosy) Inuka was, much like Singaporeans.

"I don't see a polar bear," he said. "I see a Singaporean."
