Guess who likes snow?

This Panda is from a Panda sanctuary in China. He is part of Panda conservation program. I do not know all the details of Chinas Panda program, but they have breeding pairs on loan to certain zoos. They will be five years in Toronto and five years in Calgary. It is hoped that there will be at least one baby.

Canada had to pay a lot of money for this, but the money helps fund Panda research and conservation. They set up a big Panda information centre along with the Panda display. It is a great opportunity to educate people about Pandas.

Snow is great until you have had many months of it. I know how much fun it is. Jumping into big drifts is great. Snowshoeing and skiing are great.

Slogging through knee deep snow, day after day for months, just to get to work, that loses its appeal after awhile. Trust me on that.
