I I IanRRobinson 24 Mar 2012 It seems strange to a Brit to see them indoors, but I guess that in the summer they're probably very grateful to have a break from the Texan heat!

I wonder if it is meant to be a rotating species exhibit? Rather unusual.

jbnbsn99 24 Mar 2012 Koalas were a rental from SDZ. These are currently the only Red Pandas in Texas.
