Edinburgh Zoo’s Panda Exhibit was officially opened on Friday December 16, 2011.

It was panda fan Andi McLean who had the honor to cut the ribbon. McLean was the first person to book a panda ticket when the zoo announced Tian Tian and Yang Guang’s arrival date. For this reason, he gott the chance to officially open the gate to Scotland’s panda enclosure with Edinburgh Zoo’s CEO, Hugh Roberts.

Many panda fans are expected to follow in the next few days/weeks/months…

Andi McLean from Warrington, UK adopted a panda cub from CCRCGP and is the owner of www.pandanews.org
