Pandas, China and the world 熊猫

After the founding of People’s Republic of China in 1949, giant pandas used to be sent abroad in three ways: national gift, commercial exhibition, and scientific communication and cooperation. After 1982, the first two ways were canceled and now pandas go abroad for scientific purposes only. As below are the files of the 28 giant pandas living overseas according to Chengdu Research base of Giant Panda Breeding:
