A giant panda at Beijing Zoo. I watched this panda make a very thorough investigation of its climbing frame. This involved rolling around and dangling upside down by its back legs: a clumsy but controlled gymnast. Taken 19 Aug 2008.
A forlorn looking caged dalmation at the Children's Zoo in Beijing Zoo. Screened off during my visit, this row of enclosures held many breeds of dog. Visitors used to be able to hire them out for a walk. Taken 19 Aug 2008.
