It’s a wee bit early for St. Patrick’s Day, but Singapore Zoo’s two polar bears have turned bright green. The usually white coats of Sheba and Inuka turned green a few weeks ago from a harmless algae growing in their hollow hair shafts, said Vincent Tan, a zoo spokesman. Sheba’s coat was bleached and Inuka will be given a similar treatment soon.
