No, you can't. They're so endangered that the only people that have them in the U.S. are zoos. And I know a lot of them have been trying to increase their numbers through mating.

Haha, I was actually just kidding. But I think it would be cool to be one of the vets who went through the process of impregnating pandas so that their endangered population would increase. It's a really hard and extremely expensive process. Female pandas are only fertile one day a year and I think this one was born through invitro fertilization at the San Diego zoo. There are a lot of documentaries about it that you mgiht want to check out. All those pictures are of the same panda at different stages.

Impergnating pandas - I'm not even going to touch this one.

However, I would like to say that if you get a panda, I'll get a penguin, and we can live in our own crazy zoo next year.

Eh, that might not be plausible. We should see if the Akron Zoo would rent us rooms. I'll take the monkey house!

We should sneak into the rainforest part of Cleveland zoo and live there. I'd watch the fishies and albino aligator swim around.

We'll run away, like in the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankwiler!
Do people throw change into the fish pools at the zoo?
