Archive: Zoo welcomes UK's first polar bear twins
Archive video shows the first polar bear twins born in the UK exploring their enclosure.
The black-and-white newsreel footage from April 1960 was filmed at Whipsnade Zoo in Bedfordshire.
Female cubs Aurora and Polaris are seen enjoying some playtime with their mother Sonja.
Whipsnade first housed a polar bear in the 1930s but stopped keeping them in 1984.
