China is sending two giant pandas, Ping Ping (male) and Fu Shuang (female), to Zoo Atlanta under a new 10-year conservation agreement. The deal continues the 'panda bond' between the two nations spanning over 20 years. The pandas come from the Chengdu Research Base in Sichuan province and will arrive as US President Trump is expected to meet Xi Jinping next month.
China Wildlife Conservation Association announced that male panda Ping Ping and female Fu Shuang will travel to Zoo Atlanta under a 10-year conservation agreement signed last year. Both pandas were born at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding. Chinese state media framed the announcement as extending the "panda bond" between the Chinese and American people, while Zoo Atlanta expressed delight at being trusted as stewards of the treasured species.
