National Zoo: Giant Panda Habitat - a photo on Flickriver

            The David M. Rubenstein Family Giant Panda Habitat at the Smithsonian National Zoo is a state-of-the-art indoor and outdoor exhibit designed to replicate the pandas' natural habitat in China.  The zoo's pandas, Mei Xiang and Tian Tian, have lived there, on lan from the China Wildlife Conservation Association, since 2000.  Their first male cub, Tai Shan, was born in 2005 and returned to China in 2010.  Their first female cub, Bao Bao, was born in 2013, and then their second male cub, Being Bei, followed in 2015.  The first Giant pandas arrived at the National Zoo as a gift by the government of China following President Richard Nixon's 1972 visit. 

The National Zoological Park, commonly known as the National Zoo, a part of the Smithsonian Institution, was founded in 1889.  The Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute cares for about 1,800 animals representing 300 species.  The 163-acre urban park that houses the main campus was drawn up by Samuel Langley, third Secretary of the Smithsonian; William William T. Hornaday, noted conservationist and head of the Smithsonian's vertebrate division; and Frederick Law Olmsted, the premier landscape architect of his day, and opened tot he public in 1891.
