Giant panda Fu Bao, who was born in the Republic of Korea in 2020 and returned to China in April, met the public for the first time after moving into the Wolong Shenshuping Base in Sichuan province of the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda.
Over 20 Chinese and Korean media outlets, along with more than 40 students, witnessed Fu Bao's debut in her new home. After exploring the yard, Fu Bao enjoyed the food tower arranged by the caretakers, consisting of bamboo, carrots and bamboo shoots.
Starting from Wednesday, Fu Bao will be on show regularly. The Wolong Shenshuping Base will implement crowd control and time limits for visiting Fu Bao's enclosure based on visitor numbers, allowing each group a 5-minute viewing window.
