Tiergarten Schönbrunn We will miss you, Fu Long!

Our little "Happy Dragon" (= "Fu Long"), 26 months old, will leave Zoo Vienna this Wednesday, Nov 18, 2009. We all will miss him very much. This is my video on this cute giant panda cub at the Zoo of Vienna:



I'm looking forward to seeing him again next year during my visit to Bifengxia ...

 

Your visit to where... ?

 

Cuteness overload in the video!

 

To China Conservation and Research Centre for the Giant Panda in Bifengxia, Sichuan, China, where Fu Long is going to this week. We want to do volonteering at the Centre next year.

 

Ah!
That sounds exciting. How did you get to volunteer for that ?

 

Well, I'm not sure, one day we knew, we will do that. When you have the chance to see giant pandas in your local zoo, watch a panda cub growing up, and you are in touch with one of their keepers, then it's just "normal", you want to do more then "only" watch pandas at a zoo ...

 

You are very fortunate, Jola. I hope you treasure every second of your time with the pandas.

 

Hopefully a second naturally conceived panda will be on its way soon as Yang Yang and Long Hui have been observed mating this week.
