Giant Pandas coming to DC zoo

Two giant pandas bound for the National Zoo in Washington, D.C., have left the Chinese city of Chengdu for their long journey to a new home.

The pair — one female called Qing Bao and one male called Bao Li — will arrive almost a year since the last giant pandas left Washington D.C. Their move is part of an ongoing conservation project with Beijing that dates back several decades and is often informally referred to as an element in China's "panda diplomacy" with several nations that includes the United States.

First lady Jill Biden was part of a group that announced their planned arrival during a video released in late May.

The National Zoo has not issued any precise details of their arrival out of security concerns, and phone calls to the zoo went unanswered late Monday. But the zoo on social media hinted at the duo's expected Tuesday arrival in announcing that the zoo would be closed that day.part of a group that announced their planned arrival during a video released in late May.
