Adelaide Zoo The "Panda's have landed"

[MARK]

A big warm welcome to Wang Wang & Funi the pair of Giant Panda's who arrived from China today for a ten year stay at the Adelaide zoo, I hope they like their new exhibit and lets hope with a bit of luck maybe a few babies at some stage in the future

Good luck Adelaide and well done

I missed them the last time I visited the zoo (they had already gone in for the night). Love that fig tree.

Is anyone going tomorrow?

 

[Electus Parrot]

I am, the zoo sent me tickets in the mail to go, probably because I bought bamboo for them (and not because I booked them). Should be good, I will try and get lots of photos.

 

[MARK]

Looking forwards to your photos, Could you take a few of the exhibit as well, Cheers

Sure, it says on the website there are twelve animals/species on the way to the pandas in the exhibit that are from China, they may be fake but if anyone can shed some light on this that would be great.

Here is a link to the animals found around the exhibit. Only the Red Pandas are real.
