Adelaide Zoo in Australia will receive new giant pandas, Xing Qiu and Yi Lan, as part of ongoing panda diplomacy between Australia and China. The pair will replace longtime residents Wang Wang and Fu Ni and contribute to the international breeding program and conservation agreement between the South Australian government and China's National Forestry and Grassland Administration. Panda diplomacy dates back to the 1950s, aimed at fostering diplomatic goodwill and ideological ties.
