Hey there, panda fans! 🐼
Did you know there’s a super cute panda family bringing smiles to everyone in Macao, China? Let’s meet them!
The Happy Family
In the Seac Pai Van Park in Macao lives a panda family known as the “happy family.” Why are they called that? Well, the mom and dad pandas are named Kai Kai and Xin Xin, which together mean “happy” in Chinese! Isn’t that adorable?
Meet the Cubs
In June 2016, Kai Kai and Xin Xin had twin baby pandas. The twins were named Jian Jian and Kang Kang, which together mean “healthy” in Chinese. So, the family is all about happiness and health! ❤️
A Special Gift
Kai Kai and Xin Xin came to Macao from Chengdu City in China back in 2015 as a special gift from the central government. Chengdu is a city in southwest China that’s famous for pandas!
Learning Languages
Guess what? The panda caretakers talk to them in Cantonese, English, and even a bit of the Chengdu dialect! Panda breeder Mok Weng Han says they communicate in different languages during training. How cool is that? 🌟
Panda Conservation
Taking care of pandas is a big job! The Macao Giant Panda Pavilion works closely with the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding to make sure the pandas are healthy and happy.
Bringing Joy to Macao
As Macao celebrates its 25th anniversary of returning to China, more and more people are visiting the park to see the adorable panda family. Kids love stopping by every week to say hello to their furry friends.
Spreading Happiness and Health
Just like their names suggest, the panda family is spreading happiness and health to everyone in Macao. Panda breeder Mok hopes that everyone in Macao can be as happy and healthy as the pandas! 😊
