Zoo Atlanta partnering with NJ company to bring back popular online panda cam

>> Thursday, March 19, 2009


After three months of darkness, Zoo Atlanta's online panda cam is back.

The zoo announced Tuesday that it is resurrecting its popular online video feed that drew millions of hits from panda fans across the globe. The zoo is partnering with the New Jersey-based Earth Cam after getting rid of its panda cam Dec. 31 because of budget cuts.

Earth Cam has agreed to stream the online video for free in exchange for promotion by the zoo.

The zoo has two panda cubs —
Mei Lan (MAY LAHN) and Xi Lan (SHE LAHN) — born since 2006. Xi Lan, which means "Atlanta's Joy," was born Aug. 31.

The video will air from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday starting Friday.
