Payton, the male polar bear at the Memphis Zoo, could not get enough of the cold snow this week as he rolled around joyfully.

While the zoo was closed Friday because of the weather, like most people, this bear seemed to enjoy a good snow day.

The zoo shared this video on their Facebook page, and it quickly went viral.
