Panda facts 'not all black and white'
THE giant panda will be the subject of a lecture to be held in the Capital on Friday.
The 'it's not all black and white' talk is part of the Edinburgh Lectures Series and will include three eminent speakers from the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS).
Co-presented by Queen Margaret University and the city council, the lecture is part of the Chinese Connections programme.
The process is underway for Edinburgh Zoo to receive a breeding pair of giant pandas from China.
David Windmill, chief executive of RZSS, said: "We have been working to bring giant pandas to Scotland for a number of years now and we hope to welcome them in 2010. Caring for giant pandas means so much more to us than introducing a new species to our collection."
Tickets for the lecture at 1.30pm on Friday at The Hub on Castlehill, can be purchased at www.edinburghlectures.org.
