An endangered young female red panda named Little Mebo has been welcomed to the San Francisco Zoo & Gardens, officials said Friday. Little Mebo's name was chosen by San Francisco Zoo logical Society board member Kevin Xu in honor of his mother and to complement the animal's playful and curious nature.
'It was hard to keep a low profile with Little Mebo peeking over the mesh door covering of the crate every 30 seconds. Everyone was beyond excited to see her,' Poole said in a statement. 'As the plane climbed to 35,000 feet, I looked into the crate to check on her and saw that she was doing well and calmly chewing on some bamboo, enjoying her flight.
