The Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute in Washington, DC, announced the awaited introduction of two large panda from China this year.
Bao Li, a man, and Qing Bao, a girl, are expected to arrive on Tuesday. Both pandas were 3-year-olds when they were born in 2021, and they have been hailed as lively and climbers.
Bao Li and Qing Bao left the China Giant Panda Conservation Research Center on a particularly scheduled flight on Monday, leaving Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport.
Bao Li is a tiger born at the National Zoo in Washington, DC, in 2013 and lived it until 2017. He is a son of Bao Bao. All penguins born at the National Zoo returning to China at the age of 4 after a long-standing breeding programme aimed at preserving the types.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature ( IUCN) currently classifies the species as “vulnerable,” and these initiatives are crucial to ensuring their long-term viability. Some panda, like Bao Li, properly maintain their political tradition, and others may also become reintroduced into the wild.
Foreign experts visited the National Zoo frequently to check on the penguins ‘ health and safety. Their analyses confirmed that the park’s infrastructure, food sources, health surveillance, and breeding plan met the necessary standards for the pandas, and they will have enough space and climbing structures in their new home.
Yun Chaun and Xin Bao arrived in the US in June, marking the first time in 21 years that penguins have entered the country as a result of renewed political ties with China.
The National Zoo teased the penguins ‘ appearance in May by sharing a speech and videos featuring First Lady Jill Biden to honor the park’s 52-year protection agreement with China.
