Bear cuscuses - which are not bears at all - are reclusive and only a few keepers and no members of the public are allowed near them.

Those include the dwarf cuscus, a large-eyed marsupial; the anoa, a midget buffalo; the Sulawesi crested black macaque, locally known as yaki; and the babirusa, or deer-pig, which is renowned for its large tusks.

The bear cuscus, which does not have the name, was born to a pair who have been at Wroclaw Zoo for three years, according to the park.

The cuscus hangs on by its fingertips—or its curling, prehensile tail.

The South Pacific voyage of the northern common cuscus was likely involuntary, and likely ended—unhappily for the cuscus—in a cooking fire.
