  The San Diego Zoo has announced the debut of another Baby Panda.  The zoo has set up a ‘Panda Cam’ for you to see the cute 5 month old. 

     The San Diego Zoo has had a love affair with giant pandas ever since two of the black-and-white bears came to visit in 1987. After years of red tape and tons of application paperwork, the Zoo and China agreed on a 12-year research loan of two giant pandas, Bai Yun and Shi Shi. A brand-new exhibit area was built for the panda guests, which has since been expanded and renovated and is now called the Giant Panda Research Station.

   When Portland Firefly was on the panda cam the other day, the baby panda was hanging upside down from a tree limb…. so-o-o  cute!!!!
