The Salisbury Zoo is finally getting a new Andean bear from Ecuador, an important step toward helping preserve this endangered species. WBOC's Bill Mich and Chris Weimer are tagging along with Salisbury Zoo officials on their journey to Ecuador to pick up the male bear named "Pinocchio," who will be brought back to Salisbury to mate with the zoo's female bear "Chaska." Full coverage of Pinocchio's journey to Salisbury below.
