    Please plesae please America, pandas are innocent. Please treat them with love, never EVER do what Memphis Zoo did to Ya Ya. Please see that Ya Ya is doing great after she returned to China. Pandas should never look like Ya Ya in Memphis Zoo. Have some pity on these beautiful and extremely rare animals that generations of Chinese people have fought tooth and nail to bring back from near-extinction. May American kids (and parents) grow up to love pandas too. ❤

    With the current political cloud which is very hostile towards China, it would be better to delay the loan.

    Indeed with yaya was the worst panda image i have ever seen it was even worst than the pandas living in the wild..and now yaya is healed and back as a healthy panda that we adored…taking care of pandas is not easy and cost a lot of money, yet if they are not able to protect, care and love them better leave them in their home town.❤❤

    @@emeldabon4524 Exactly. The program is to protect the vulnerable species not to mistreat, abuse nor neglect them in any way or reason(s). Keepers/breeders should always provide them with a healthy & happy environment to live in natural way as possible (including natural reproduction) & love them through careful attentiveness. As for the visitors, show your love to pandas by abiding the etiquette on watching pandas to avoid stressing them. Hope nothing but happiness & a healthy lives ahead of this Panda couple. 😊

    I hope that the San Diego Zoo will start replanting bamboo farms and ensure that the quality is sufficient for the pandas before they arrive. Additionally, I would like to request renovations for the San Diego panda habitat, including adequate air conditioning for the pandas. It is also important to have at least two panda keepers to care for each panda and ensure they are receiving enough healthy food. I have noticed that Xiang Liwu doesn't eat much and seems hungry all the time. Lastly, please avoid placing a station next to the panda exhibit area, as the constant descriptions of the pandas by the keepers can be disruptive.

    The zoo has been preparing for the pandas arrival since early March 2023, when there was a press conference. I learned about the news from church member who volunteered at the zoo. Let zoologist do their job. The new male panda is the Grand baby, his grandfather was one of the original San Diego Panda.

I didn't know they were leaving in September, so I was very lucky to see them! My church member who volunteered @ SD zoo told me in March that 🐼🐼 are coming in the fall, but it's good that they will arrive sooner! No wonder tge zoo tickets are so expensive!

    If they can talk and decide, they would say No to this panda diplomacy. China is greedy to make money and willing to sacrifice their national treasures. Sad thing is Pandas' life is written on a paper, decide by humans😢
