Keeper for Wang Wang and Funi Chosen

2009-Sep-25
Adelaide zoo is getting ready for it's new pandas arriving soon, the construction is on schedule and on budget. They have now chosen who will lead the team of keepers who will look after them. Simone Bayly use to be a orangutan keeper but is now off to China to learn more about the Giant Panda, including their reproductive cycle, and how to train and look after them. If Adelaide are lucky enough to have a cub, it could be up to her to look after it, if mum decides not to care for it, especially if it's twins. So congratulations to Simone on getting the position. Look after our friends for us.
