Adelaide Zoo Giant Pandas Enjoy Early Easter Treats

Giant pandas Fu Ni and Wang Wang opened some early easter treats at the Adelaide Zoo on Thursday, April 9, as part of the zoo’s enrichment program for animals.

“Enrichment helps our residents to stay mentally and physically stimulated and encourages them to use their natural behaviours and instincts as they would in the wild,” said Zoos South Australia in a press release.

“Wang Wang enjoyed boxes filled with special panda cake, fruit and his favourite enrichment of smelly sawdust, while Fu Ni also tucked into panda cake, fruits and vegetables as well as a lovely strawberry-scented towel to rub on herself,” the zoo said.

Fu Ni and Wang Wang had a very limited audience, however, comprised only of zookeepers. The Adelaide Zoo closed on March 25, due to COVID-19 restrictions. Credit: Zoos South Australia via Storyful
