Pandas Tian Tian and Yang Guang arrived in Scotland from China last December. The pair is very popular at the Edinburgh Zoo, but the cubs have yet to reproduce. In the meantime, the timid pandas are earning their keep with a new visitor experience at the zoo.

For £1,000, up to four visitors can live the “Panda Keeper Experience”. Visitors meet with the pandas after hours and even hand feed the bears (assuming they’re hungry). Zookeepers are on hand for the hour-long experience to answer questions and aid in the interactions with the pandas and visitors.

More on the offering and the pandas can be seen at The Daily Mail.
