On Saturday, Aug. 12th, PDX Wildlife celebrated its Annual Event with an evening of spicy food and small talks about the future of panda research. The event was small and intimate but was kept exciting with stories of China and Pandas from one of our board members, Nate, who returned only a few nights ago.

Some of the highlights from the evening were-
- We are planning to offer 14 internships throughout the year. 4 during the winter/spring, 4 during the summer, 4 during the fall, and 2 during the winter. We will have more details on this in the next few weeks.
- New to 2016- PDX Wildlife will begin covering flight costs associated with a limited number of internships.
- New to 2016- PDX Wildlife will begin offering individualized Panda Bear tours in Sichuan, China that will allow 1-2 people access to the inner workings of PDX Wildlife, panda bears, and Chinese culture.
With an exciting 2016 schedule, we hope that you will remain part of our continually expanding research. Be sure to check back over the next few weeks to learn more about these updates. In the meantime, here are a few pictures for the event.
