Yesterday, we went to Adelaide Zoo to visit Wang Wang and Funi, the newly-arrived Chinese panda bears. The pandas had arrived to the Zoo three weeks ago and are still in quarantine, but we we able to go see them.
The attendance to the zoo has doubled since the arrival of pandas, and it was evident in the line-up to see the pandas. We lined up and stood there in 35 C sun. HOT!!! Pack water and then drink a lot of it, as you are losing litres of water in that heat.
Back to pandas. They were Cute!!! The male and the female are kept in separate cages, and are only brought together for mating, which supposedly does not happen very often.
It was great to see pandas up close. They are big, fuzzy, and keep eating their bamboo. It was really hard to take a good picture as pandas were behind thick glass panes. You can find the pictures below.
