In a wholesome news story to finish off your weekend, an escaped red panda has been located safe and sound after busting out of Adelaide Zoo. In the most exciting thing to happen to Adelaide since the Adelaide Fringe Festival wrapped up in March, the rare red panda was finally located after a two-day search.

Ravi the red panda was found perched in a Botanic Park tree in the city’s centre. The little tacker needed to be tranquillised in order to be safely returned home. We’ve all been in that position before, right?

“Based on the advice from our vets we made the decision that we’d look at darting him,” Adelaide Zoo director Dr Phil Ainsley told the ABC.”
