  In advance, we will conduct an investigation to examine our climate, our capabilities, our bamboo resources, as well as some related procedures, as well as the construction of our premises. From the beginning of the feasibility study inspection to the construction of the building, it has been shared for nearly two years.

  [Commentary] Xiong Qiyou said that in order to master the knowledge of raising giant pandas, he led the breeder to Sichuan for three months. In order to reduce the stress response caused by the transfer, the giant panda did not take air transportation, but used cold chain transportation instead. At the same time, the China Giant Panda Conservation Research Center also sent breeding experts to reside in Phoenix for three months of technical guidance.

  The cold chain car must ensure that the temperature reaches 25 (Celsius) temperature, so that it (the giant panda) can not make it too hot at the adapted temperature, and must ensure that the air is smooth and circulating, and the car is also equipped with edible bamboo shoots As well as drinking mineral water, we take a rest and rest (every) for three hours, and at the same time check the health of the (giant panda) cat.
