PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (AP) -- Two polar bears at the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium should be resting easier these days.

The zoo has unveiled a $14 million exhibit for the animals that includes a waterfall, a freshwater stream and a 150,000-gallon pool chilled to between 50 and 55 degrees Fahrenheit. It also features a yard where they can play or nap.

That's nice. Although it's a shame they can't be at their real home.

Don't people who visit the zoo think it's strange we have polar bears in Pittsburgh...?

Thanks - but no Yea! from me. Just how hot does it get in Pittsburgh in the summer? Just like no elephant belongs in Anchorage, I believe no Polar Bear belongs in a hot climate
