Smithsonian National Zoo Smithsonian National Zoo News 2013

I believe the week before is when FONZ members have access to the panda house if they show their membership cards.
 
I know they expected her death for quite some time. I am curious, not even sure if they still have them, if they will start to introduce kudu into the yard now that the wallaby is gone.
 
From Facebook:

"This morning at about 11:40, a keeper heard a commotion from the Cheetah Conservation Station cheetah yard. When the keeper investigated, he found a white-tailed deer on the ground in the exhibit with cheetah siblings Carmelita and Justin. Sadly, the deer was dead. Zoo staff removed the deer from the exhibit by 11:54 a.m. A necropsy report will be conducted to ensure the deer didn't carry any diseases. Our animal care team will also check the cheetahs, but all signs point to them being unharmed. There were no known witnesses to the incident, but it appears the deer jumped into the enclosure."
