That’s great news for panda lovers in America! The two panda diplomats, as they are often referred to, are a diplomatic gift from China and are a symbol of peace and goodwill among nations. They’ll be residing at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo in Washington D.C and will be part of efforts to study and conserve the species, which is classified as vulnerable by The International Union for Conservation of Nature. In addition to serving in a diplomatic role, pandas are also educational ambassadors helping to raise awareness about the need for wildlife conservation. Visitors can come and see these adorable creatures while learning about their habits, lifestyle, and the conservation efforts being made to preserve their species.
