Polar bear takes a dip during record Russian temperatures

Animals at the Moscow Zoo are trying to beat the heat as the temperatures soar into the 90's there today. According to Polar Bears International, polar bears have problems overheating - even when they're running around in the arctic. I hope this bear is able to keep cool through the Russian summer.
