It’s Panda Time
Posted at 2:55 pm March 31, 2009 by Callie
On our last adventure, we met with the panda researcher extraordinaire, Megan Owen! She has observed pandas for over 10 years, since her children were toddlers. She and her family even lived in China for a time to learn more about these endangered bears.
With the keepers we made scientific observations of the panda Zhen Zhen at the Zoo. Intern William is pictured here taking studious observations of Gao Gao.
Our observations showed this individual panda at the Zoo tends to wander around her exhibit at this time of the day.
As a final farewell, we took a group picture in the hollow tree, a replica of a birthing den for a wild panda. We can all truthfully say that these past seven weeks were beyond our expectations. We never imagined that we would learn so much, and the experiences we had were once-in-a-lifetime.
