I was disappointed to see that they had closed the red panda exhibit:



But later found out that the pair had been temporarily moved to the small mammals house. After talking to a couple of the volunteers, I found out that they were making the outside enclosure a bit more secure. No one knew for sure, but the rumor is that the red pandas had either gotta out or were able to get to parts of their enclosure where they weren't supposed to be.


These are their temporary houses..




Fuzzy picture, but this is the way to nap...
