A Little Panda-monium...

...Makes everybody "beary" happy

Actor Jack Black was at Zoo Atlanta in Grant Park Tuesday for a very special naming ceremony of the baby panda born last year.

The birth gave Atlanta the distinction and bragging rights for being home to the only U.S. zoo that had a panda birth in 2010.

The panda, named "Po," shares his moniker with the lead character in the upcoming film "Kung Fu Panda 2."
