Happy News | Tamarin monkeys and Pandas Settling In | Newsround

[Music] Bringing you a smile to start with is this   new panda enclosure in California  in the USA that has just opened. The pair of Chinese pandas here are the first part  of a plan to increase the population of pandas and it is hope that little  baby pandas will follow soon. Just look how fluffy and cute they are! Next we're heading to the skies  and look at these amazing hot   air balloons taking to the sky in Turkey. It's all part of the culture Road Festival   where around 60 balloons from 18 countries take  part and just look at how varied some of them are. Loving this rocket ship one. Last up I had to show you these  two new arrivals at Chester Zoo  these two Tamarind monkey twins are  seen as a massive lift for the species  as it's believed that there are  only 2,000 left in existence  these critically endangered  monkeys look absolutely adorable  but I imagine they'll be  causing all sorts of mischief [Music]
