8 places to find fun panda videos

The pandas are back. Two pandas were flown in Tuesday to live in the National Zoo in Washington, D.C. Their arrival is notable because earlier this year, the U.S. had to return three pandas to China from the zoo due to an “expiring loan agreement between the U.S. and China,” according to Georgetown University .

The U.S. and China were able to find an agreement in order to continue the “panda diplomacy” program that allows the U.S. to exhibit pandas on American soil, per USA Today .

Here’s what we know about the pandas, according to CBS News :

• Bao Li: a 3-year-old male who was born in Sichuan and whose mother was born at the National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute in 2013.
• Qing Bao: 3-year-old female who will be loaned to the U.S.

“Our team has worked tirelessly to prepare for the pandas’ arrival, and we’re thrilled to welcome Bao Li and Qing Bao to Washington, D.C., the only place you can see giant pandas for free in the nation,” said Brandie Smith, the John and Adrienne Mars Director of NZCBI, per a release.
