The Pandas Are Coming!

The Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute will welcome a new pair of giant pandas, Bao Li [BOW-lee] and Qing Bao [ching-BOW], to the Zoo by the end of 2024. Giant pandas are icons in Washington, D.C., and beloved around the nation and the world. For more than five decades, the Smithsonian has created and maintained one of the world’s foremost giant panda conservation programs, helping move the panda from “endangered” to “vulnerable” on the global list of species at risk of extinction.
