PANDAmonium has taken over Adelaide Zoo! On the eve of the public opening of the Panda enclosure on Monday December 14, we snuck in for a look around Wang Wang and Funi's new digs Down Under.

After passing through the new astoundingly open and vast Zoo entrance, and on via a series of ponds and gardens in the Panda zone, we finally saw the brilliant black and white bears the city has been holding its breath for.

Still quarantined in their indoor habitats, the pair already seem quite at home, dozing and munching on endless bamboo. Looking forward to their release into their spectacular outdoor spaces in a fortnight's time!
