SAN DIEGO -- A farewell ceremony was held in China Wednesday for two giant pandas that will soon be heading to their new home at the San Diego Zoo.
Yun Chuan is the son of Zhen Zhen, who was born at the San Diego Zoo in 2007. Zhen Zhen’s parents were Bai Yun and Gao Gao. China recalled almost all of its pandas who were on loan to zoos in the United States around five years ago after relations between the two countries soured. Cooperation between China and the United States has led to the possibility of pandas returning to zoos, including the San Diego Zoo.
