The Red Pandas at the Bronx Zoo in New York had an unexpected visit by the press.
Last Saturday a New York Post reporter was there to cover a story about a man who had tried to climb into the enclosure of the snow leopards the day before.
As CBS New York reported, the 37-year-old reporter entered an off-limits area in the back of the Red Panda enclosure.
Trespassing
According to police, the reporter had ignored warning signs and taken photos.
A New York Post spokeswoman said to the newspaper AM New York, that the reporter “inadvertently crossed a strip of grass that was not clearly labeled”.
The reporter was issued a criminal summons for trespassing. She didn’t have direct contact with the Red Pandas in the enclosure.
