So which zoo closest to Texas has Pandas? Looks like Memphis from a google search. Any closer that y'all know of?

Yes, Memphis does have Pandas, and a nice little set up.  The whole exhibit is from China even the trees.  :aok  

PS  Don't slingshot the Tigers!:D

Good exercise too. Walking up and down the hills. The line to see the pandas is usually miles long.

Memphis Zoo is quite nice. Two Pandas with a dedicated exhibit with other animals indigenous to China. They have open area exhibits for Primate Monkeys and Cats. A new Northwest Exhibit recently opened with Polar Bears Seals etc from the NW area. Evn their bird exhibit has two oepn areas designed to prevent the birds from flying away. It is a good way to spend a day.

Pandas Schmandas.  Where are the closest Kodiak Grizzly Polar hybrids?
