Long Live Social Media

Federal agencies are finding social media keeps communication going in all sorts of emergencies. The National Zoo is thanking a neighbor for helping to track down a red panda on the loose. One-year-old Rusty went missing yesterday morning. The Zoo took to Facebook and Twitter to get the word out. An Adams Morgan resident spotted the red panda in a tree. She tweeted a photo and called the zoo. Rusty is now in the animal hospital for an evaluation. Director Dennis Kelly says the Zoo is going over the exhibit with a fine tooth comb. Officials can't recall another escape in Washington.
