Seeing snow is something most Canadians don't bat an eye lash at, but for one animal at the Toronto zoo it was a whole new experience.

A three-month old polar bear at the Toronto Zoo went outside recently and realized that there was some cold white stuff covering the ground. The baby girl hasn’t been named just yet, but the Toronto Zoo said they will be making an announcement about her name in the near future.

The small bear pressed her nose against the snow and got a little freaked out about the chill factor.

The 7.5 kg cub is currently getting fed five times a day and spending time outdoors every day to get familiarized with the area she now calls home.

She is still in the maternity den of the polar bear exhibit and is not viewable to the public just yet.
