Meet the Popular Pandas:
和花He Hua (Nickname: Hua Hua), born 4th July 2020 (Residence: Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, Sichuan), the incredibly popular "superstar," is the cutest panda. Her head and body blend seamlessly together without a neck, making her look like a triangular rice ball when she sits. She has a gentle and non-competitive personality and doesn't like climbing trees. Due to her immense popularity, fans need to line up early in the morning and run a kilometerto see her, resulting in the amusing "Hua Hua Dash."
萌兰 Meng Lan, born 4th July 2015 (Residence: Beijing Zoo), the sunny and cheerful "Third Prince of Xizhimen," is the most handsome male panda. He loves freedom and adventure, often exploring new and interesting things. He's known for climbing walls, digging tunnels, and even dismantling surveillance cameras. His most famous feat was escaping by climbing over two enclosure walls using a toy ball, which gave his fans quite a scare.
飞云 Fei Yun, born 30th July 2010 (Residence: Dalian Forest Zoo), considered the epitome of panda beauty, has a sweet and adorable face symbolizing peace and prosperity, and she loves to smile. She is gentle and delicate when taking food. However, due to her frequent rough play with other pandas, she has earned the nickname " Kung Fu Barbie," reflecting her angelic appearance and warrior heart.
