Tokyo (AFP) Aug 31, 2024

Two ageing pandas at a Tokyo zoo will be returned to China next month for medical care, the city’s governor said, with visitors queuing on Saturday to catch their last glimpse of the couple.

The pandas Ri Ri and Shin Shin arrived at Ueno Zoo in 2011 and were due to stay until February 2026, but Japan and China agreed it would be better for the 19-year-olds to return to their home country.
