Two giant pandas, He Feng and Lan Yun, departed from Chengdu, capital of Sichuan province, on Wednesday for Austria, where they will spend the next 10 years at the historic Schoenbrunn Zoo in Vienna.大熊猫"和风"与"兰云"于周三从四川省会成都启程前往奥地利,将在维也纳历史悠久的"美泉宫动物园"开启为期10年的旅居生活。Both born in 2020, the pandas are from the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda.这两只2020年出生的熊猫均来自中国大熊猫保护研究中心。To ensure a smooth and safe journey, a Chinese veterinarian and an Austrian caregiver accompanied them on the flight, according to a media release from the center.据该中心发布的通告,为了确保旅途顺畅安全,中国兽医专家与奥地利饲养员随机全程护送。Fresh bamboo, bamboo shoots, specially made steamed buns, drinking water and medications were also packed for the trip, the release said.通告称旅途中配备了新鲜竹材、竹笋、特制窝头、饮用水及应急药品等物资。A Chinese caregiver and veterinarian will remain with the pandas for a period to help them adapt to their new environment at Schoenbrunn Zoo, one of the world's oldest zoos with a history of more than 270 years.中国饲养员和兽医专家将在奥地利驻留一段时间,协助这对大熊猫适应美泉宫动物园新环境。该园作为全球最古老的动物园之一,迄今已有逾270年历史。He Feng, the male panda, has a name symbolizing lotus-infused freshness, while Lan Yun, the female, is named to reflect the fragrance of orchids, the center said.中国大熊猫保护研究中心特别说明,雄性大熊猫"和风"之名取意"荷风送爽"的清新意象,而雌性大熊猫"兰云"则寓含"幽兰吐蕊"的芬芳意境。The release outlined a range of preparations jointly undertaken by China and Austria ahead of the pandas' arrival.通报详细介绍了中奥双方为大熊猫安家所做的共同准备工作。In March, a team of Chinese experts visited Austria to inspect the upgraded facilities at the zoo and provided technical guidance on aspects such as habitat, diet and health care.今年3月,中方专家组专程赴奥对维也纳美泉宫动物园升级改造后的设施进行实地考察,并就大熊猫的栖息环境、饮食方案及健康护理等方面提供了专业指导。The renovated indoor enclosure features new climbing structures and an advanced system for controlling temperature and humidity. The outdoor space includes tall trees, shrubs, wooden perches, rock formations, caves, a pond and a creek with automatically filtered water.升级改造后的室内馆舍配备有专业攀爬架及智能温湿度调控系统,而室外活动区不仅有高耸的乔木与低矮灌木,还设置了原木栖架、仿真岩群、生态洞穴、观景池塘以及拥有自动净水系统的小溪等景观设施。A bamboo plantation has also been established to provide a stable and sufficient food supply for the pandas, according to the release.据通告所说,新建的竹园能够为熊猫提供稳定充足的食物补给。China and Austria began official collaboration on giant panda conservation and research in 2003. The partnership has yielded achievements in panda breeding, protection and disease treatment, as well as technical exchanges, personnel training and public education.中奥大熊猫保护研究合作始于2003年,双方在大熊猫繁育、保护及疾病治疗领域取得丰硕成果,同时持续推进技术交流、人才培养与公众教育工作。As a highlight of the collaboration, pandas Yang Yang and Long Hui, who lived at Schoenbrunn Zoo from 2003, successfully produced five cubs through natural mating—a record for panda breeding in Europe, the center noted.作为合作亮点,自2003年起旅居美泉宫动物园的大熊猫"阳阳"和"龙徽"通过自然交配成功诞下五只幼崽,创下欧洲大熊猫自然交配产仔纪录。 the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda中国大熊猫保护研究中心bamboo shoots竹笋Schoenbrunn Zoo美泉宫动物园wooden perches栖架natural mating自然交配

Whether it's live on the Smithsonian National Zoo's panda cam or in front of a crowd, possibly no other animal's sex life is as closely watched as the giant pandas' is. And there's a reason. These cuddly-looking black and white bears just can't figure out how to mate. But, with a little help from science, the once-endangered giant panda is making a comeback. To honor the arrival of the National Zoo's newest giant pandas, we peep into the (not so secret) sex lives of pandas.

Two giant pandas gifted by the central government to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) were officially named "An An" and "Ke Ke", the same with their birth names, Ocean Park Hong Kong said on Saturday.香港海洋公园在周六宣布,由中央政府赠予香港特别行政区的一对大熊猫正式命名为“安安”和“可可”,与它们出生时的原名一样。The names were chosen from over 22,600 proposals the amusement park had received during a citywide naming campaign launched by the HKSAR government in October.今年十月,香港特区政府举办了全城范围内的大熊猫命名征集活动,香港海洋公园共收到超过2.26万份命名建议,并从中选取了这两个名字。The character "An" means peace in Chinese and "Ke" connotes limitless possibilities. Together the two characters form "encore", which can be interpreted as unending good fortune for Hong Kong, said the park.香港海洋公园表示,“安”字有稳定平安之意,“可”字代表凡事皆有可能。两字合起来就是“安可”,寓意香港未来好事会接踵而来。The pair will make their public debut on Sunday, having undergone quarantine and adapted to the new environment since they relocated from southwest China's Sichuan province on Sept 26.这对大熊猫于9月26日离开中国西南部的四川省,入住香港海洋公园,经两个月的隔离期后已适应新居环境,并将于12月8日首次公开亮相。At a greeting ceremony for the giant pandas held on Saturday, Chief Executive of the HKSAR John Lee thanked caretakers from the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda and the park for helping the pandas settle in Hong Kong.He said the HKSAR government will continue to host giant panda-themed activities for residents and visitors. 在12月7日的“大熊猫亮相仪式”上,香港特区行政长官李家超向来自中国大熊猫保护研究中心和香港海洋公园的饲养员表达谢意,感谢他们帮助这对大熊猫在香港安定下来。他表示,香港特区政府将继续举办以大熊猫为主题的各项活动,欢迎市民游客前来体验。debutn.首次亮相

On tap that day was a fresh creation called New Roots. The American Lager was a hit, with many of the patrons going back to the bar for another glass.Blue Jay's owner and brewer, Jason Thompson, was also pleased with the result of this experimental beer, which he described as “earthy, almost nutty,” with a “lingering honey-like sweetness to it.” Those flavors came from his choice to use a novel grain called Kernza for 25% of the 600 pounds of grain needed for the whole brew, he said.Read the rest at sciencefriday.com.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Hong Kong is set to welcome a new pair of giant pandas presented as a gift by the central government, the special administrative region's chief executive, John Lee Ka-chiu, announced on Monday at a reception to celebrate the 27th anniversary of its establishment.7月1日,香港特区行政长官李家超在庆祝香港回归祖国27周年的酒会上对中央政府向香港特区赠送一对大熊猫表示衷心感谢,并已展开准备工作,迎接大熊猫来港。They are expected to arrive in Hong Kong in a few months and settle at Ocean Park, joining Ying Ying and Le Le, two previous gifts from the central government.预计将在几个月后抵达香港的这对大熊猫将在香港海洋公园定居,与中央政府此前赠送的大熊猫“盈盈”和“乐乐”共同生活。Lee said the move fully demonstrates the nation's care and support for Hong Kong. He added that this year also marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, which makes the gift even more special.李家超表示此举充分体现了国家对香港特区的关心和支持,并补充道今年也是中华人民共和国成立75周年,两只大熊猫作为礼物也更加特别。He spoke about how two pairs of giant pandas previously given to Hong Kong by the central government had woven their way into the collective memory of generations of Hong Kong people, who adored them.他还称,中央过去赠送的两对大熊猫陪伴一代又一代香港人成长,是大家的集体回忆。即将来临的一对大熊猫将会成为香港人的亲密“家人”,为他们带去欢笑和喜悦。The Hong Kong government has been liaising with related mainland authorities to discuss arrangements for the arrival of the giant pandas.特区政府已与大陆相关部门展开对接,商讨大熊猫赴港的安排。In 2022, Hong Kong went into mourning when the world's oldest male panda in captivity died at Ocean Park zoo. Born in the wild in Sichuan province, An An, together with its female mate Jia Jia, was given to Hong Kong by the central government in 1999. An An was euthanized at the age of 35 — the equivalent of a human living till 105.2022年,全球最长寿的圈养雄性大熊猫“安安”在香港海洋公园与世长辞。“安安”出生于四川,1999年与雌性伴侣“佳佳”一起被中央政府赠与香港。“安安”在35岁时以安乐死免于痛苦,该年龄等同于人类的105岁高龄。The pandas set multiple Guinness World Records in 2015 — Jia Jia becoming the oldest giant panda under human care, and An An the oldest male giant panda under human care.这对大熊猫在2015年创下了数项世界吉尼斯记录——“佳佳”成为了人类照顾下全球最长寿的大熊猫,“安安”则成为人类照顾下全球最长寿的雄性大熊猫。Ocean Park Chairman Paulo Pong Kin-yee said giant pandas have always been the park's most popular animal ambassadors. They have brought countless precious memories to over 55 million local and global visitors since 1999. Pong said the addition of new giant pandas will enrich Hong Kong's tourism resources and enhance Ocean Park's conservation and education efforts.海洋公园公司董事局主席庞建贻表示,大熊猫一直是公园最受欢迎的动物大使。自 1999 年以来,它们为超过5500万国内及全球游客带来了无数珍贵的回忆。新增的这对大熊猫将丰富香港的旅游资源,并进一步增强海洋公园的保护及教育成效。Hong Kong lawmaker Tan Yueheng said that giant pandas are beloved national treasures with a large global fan base. He said he believes the arrival of the new giant pandas will ignite a tourism boom and inject vitality into the local tourism industry. 香港立法会议员谭岳衡表示,大熊猫是深受喜爱的国宝,拥有庞大的全球粉丝群体。相信新的大熊猫的到来将点燃旅游热潮,为香港旅游业注入活力。Tan said that giant pandas have become valuable intellectual property in recent years.谭岳衡还说,近年来,大熊猫(IP)已成为宝贵的知识产权。Hua Hua, from Chengdu, has become a name card of the tourism industry in Sichuan's provincial capital, and driven related industries such as cultural and creative products and themed hotels. Similarly, Fu Bao in South Korea has garnered hundreds of millions of views online.来自成都的“花花”已成为四川旅游业的名片,带动了文创周边、主题酒店等相关产业的发展。同样,出生于韩国的大熊猫“福宝”也获得了数亿网络浏览量。Hong Kong should seize every opportunity to capitalize on the new giant pandas' arrival in the city, Tan said.谭岳衡表示,香港应抓住每一次宝贵的机遇,将大熊猫相关产业链发展起来。Euthanizen. 安乐死
