Olympic Panda Aims to Draw Attention to Endangered Species

One of the 2008 Olympic mascots is modeled on a panda called Jing Jing. Conservationists hope she will help draw attention to the threats facing the giant panda -- one of China's national symbols. Sam Beattie reports from Jing Jing's home in Sichuan province.
