Ice bear in Schoenbrunn
The Schoenbrunn Zoo is the oldest zoo in the world. International headlines were made approximately two years ago with the arrival of Fu Long, the panda cub at Vienna Zoo.
All panda bears which are born outside of China still belong to the State of China. Therefore, the Viennese hub had to say a teary-eyed goodbye to his parents and fans on November 18th 2009. However, many other lovely animals wait at Vienna zoo to be visited by you.
