One of Washington D.C.’s favorite institution – pandas – are coming back. The National Zoo announced Wednesday morning the return – by the end of the year – of the beloved bears from China.
The new pandas, Bao Li and Qing Bao, will replace Tian Tian and Mei Xiang who were returned to China last November.
This dynamic duo is ready to take on Washington, D.C. 🖤🤍
We’re so excited to welcome the #DCPandas later this year! Learn more and support their journey and our program: https://t.co/mcdrhDwwfD pic.twitter.com/2zbhg5o9JO
