American zoo hosts pandas for decade
Reports indicate that two giant pandas, "Bing Bing" and "Fu Shuang," have arrived at Atlanta Zoo in the United States from China aboard a dedicated cargo plane. This comes as part of China's "Panda Diplomacy," a policy in which the country owns and loans pandas to other nations to strengthen international relations; any offspring born outside China are considered its property. This visit marks the first time a giant panda has been hosted in Atlanta since the return of the last pandas to China two years ago. The arrangement is set for ten years under an agreement between Atlanta Zoo and the China Wildlife Conservation Association. Pandas are now considered a threatened species, with an estimated wild population of around 1,900 animals, most of which are in China.
