Vienna, Austria – Giant pandas at Schönbrunn Zoo are enjoying the autumn weather, rolling around in piles of colourful leaves and tossing them into the air after their keepers created a new enrichment activity for the animals.
The zookeeping team provided the endangered pandas with a mixture of autumn leaves and sawdust to encourage exploration and play. Male panda immediately embraced the new activity, according to zookeeper Mag. Renate Haider.
