PHOTOS: Animals Revel In The Snow At Brookfield Zoo

BROOKFIELD, Ill. (CBS) -- You may or may not have enjoyed the snow that pounded the Chicago area on Tuesday, but some animals at Brookfield Zoo most assuredly did.

The zoo on Tuesday shared photos of some of its animals reveling in the snow. Among them was Hudson, a 14-year-old polar bear, who couldn't resist rolling around in the freshly-fallen snow.
