Last Look at The Zoo Atlanta Panda Bears

Last Look at The Zoo Atlanta Panda Bears 1

This picture was my last visit to see the panda bears in Zoo Atlanta. They were recalled to China where they will live out their lives there. It’s a little bittersweet. They were excellent ambassadors and Zoos helped in their recovery…but it’s time they went back to the wild. China is rich enough to provide protected habitat, which is all most animals need to survive. I hope that China continues their wildlife recovery plan and starts moving panda bears back into wild habitat where they belong. But, it has been fascinating to be able to walk down and see panda bears up close. They’re fascinating animals, if a little picky about their habitat & habits.
