China's ' Panda Diplomacy ' Qatar 2022 World Cup

  🐼 Pandas sent by China arrive in Qatar ahead of World Cup.🐼

A pair of giant pandas sent as a gift from China have arrived in Qatar ahead of next month’s World Cup.

AL KHOR, Qatar -- A pair of giant pandas sent as a gift from China arrived in Qatar on Wednesday ahead of next month's World Cup.

They will take up residence in an indoor enclosure in the desert nation designed to duplicate conditions in the dense forests of China's mountainous Sichuan province. Eight hundred kilograms (nearly 1,800 pounds) of fresh bamboo will be flown in each week to feed them.

Jing Jing, a 4-year-old male weighing 120 kilograms (265 pounds), has been given the Arabic name Suhail, and 3-year-old female Si Hai, at 70 kilograms (154 pounds), has been given the Arabic name Thuraya.

The pandas will quarantine for at least 21 days before visitors will be allowed to see them.

Qatar is expecting some 1.2 million visitors for the monthlong World Cup beginning Nov. 20. The gas-rich Gulf nation will be the first Muslim or Arab country to host the world's biggest sporting event.

Tim Bouts, the director of Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation, said that in addition to providing the perfect indoor climate for the pandas, the enclosure will also shield them from stressful noises while allowing them to interact with visitors.

“There was a lot of thinking which went into this building to make it, I think, the best building for pandas in the world,” he said.

Pandas, which reproduce rarely in the wild and rely on a diet of bamboo in the mountains of western China, remain among the world's most threatened species. An estimated 1,800 pandas live in the wild, while another 500 are in zoos or reserves, mostly in Sichuan.

They are the unofficial national mascot of China, which has gifted pandas to 20 countries.

China's ambassador to Qatar, Zhou Jian, said the two pandas “will live a happy life here and bring more happiness, joy and a love to the people of Qatar and in this world.”

 🐼 中國派大熊貓在世界杯前抵達卡塔爾。🐼

 中國贈送的一對大熊貓已在下月世界杯前抵達卡塔爾。

 2022 年 10 月 20 日。

 2022 年 10 月 19 日，星期三，在卡塔爾多哈附近的 Al Khor 的熊貓屋花園，Suhail 是中國送給卡塔爾作為世界杯禮物的一隻雄性熊貓。另一隻熊貓，一隻雌性，名叫 Suhail Thuraya 於週三與 Suhail 一同抵達。

 卡塔爾豪爾——中國贈送的一對大熊貓於週三抵達卡塔爾，準備迎接下個月的世界杯。

 他們將居住在沙漠國家的一個室內圍欄中，該圍欄旨在復制中國山區四川省茂密森林的條件。 每週將空運 800 公斤（近 1,800 磅）新鮮竹子來餵養牠們。

 晶晶，一名體重 120 公斤（265 磅）的 4 歲男童，已取阿拉伯名字 Suhail，體重 70 公斤（154 磅）的 3 歲女童四海，已取阿拉伯名字 圖拉亞。

 大熊貓將被隔離至少 21 天，然後遊客才能看到它們。

 卡塔爾預計將於 11 月 20 日開始的為期一個月的世界杯期間吸引約 120 萬遊客。這個天然氣資源豐富的海灣國家將成為第一個舉辦世界最大體育賽事的穆斯林或阿拉伯國家。

 Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation 主任 Tim Bouts 表示，除了為大熊貓提供完美的室內氣候外，圍欄還將保護它們免受壓力噪音，同時允許它們與遊客互動。

 他說：“我認為，為了使這座建築成為世界上最好的大熊貓建築，我們花了很多心思。”

 大熊貓很少在野外繁殖，並以中國西部山區的竹子為食，它們仍然是世界上最受威脅的物種之一。 估計有 1,800 隻大熊貓生活在野外，另有 500 只在動物園或保護區，其中大部分在四川。

 它們是中國的非官方國家吉祥物，中國已將大熊貓贈予 20 個國家。

 中國駐卡塔爾大使周健說，兩隻大熊貓“將在這裡過上幸福的生活，為卡塔爾人民和世界人民帶來更多的幸福、快樂和愛。”

 A pair of giant pandas arrived in Qatar on Wednesday as a gift ahead of the World Cup, marking the first time China has extended its “panda diplomacy” to the Middle East.

The two pandas — known in Chinese as Si Hai and Jing Jing — will spend the next 15 years in an indoor enclosure at Al Khor Park where conditions are similar to the western Chinese forests that wild pandas call home.

Si Hai, a 3-year-old female weighing about 150 pounds, will be given the Arabic name Thuraya, while Jing Jing, a 4-year-old male weighing 265 pounds, will be known in Arabic as Suhail. About 1,800 pounds of fresh bamboo — which pandas eat almost exclusively — will be flown in for them every week.

The pandas will be available for public viewing by the time Qatar hosts the World Cup starting Nov. 20. Although the Chinese national team did not qualify for the soccer tournament, Chinese companies have been involved in the construction of major projects for the event, including the main stadium.

Giant pandas, a vulnerable species that seldom reproduces in the wild, are considered a national treasure and symbol of China. There are about 1,800 in the wild, and an additional 600 living in captivity. 

China has sent pandas to about 20 countries, including the United States, as a diplomatic tool to improve ties with foreign nations, but Qatar is the first country to receive them in the Middle East. In recent years, China has been strengthening its relations with countries in the region, even as diplomatic issues like tensions over Taiwan and Russia’s war in Ukraine strain its ties with the West.

Speaking at a welcome ceremony, Zhou Jian, the Chinese ambassador to Qatar, called the pandas a “symbol of peace.”

“Let us wish the two lovely giant pandas a happy life and healthy growth in their new home in Qatar,” he said in a version of his speech he posted on Twitter. “May they bring more love, surprise and joy to all!

週三，一對大熊貓作為世界杯前的禮物抵達卡塔爾，標誌著中國首次將“熊貓外交”延伸至中東。

 這兩隻大熊貓——中國人稱為四海和晶晶——將在未來 15 年內生活在 Al Khor 公園的室內圍欄內，那裡的條件類似於野生大熊貓稱之為家的中國西部森林。

 Si Hai，一名體重約 150 磅的 3 歲女性，將被命名為阿拉伯語名字 Thuraya，而體重 265 磅的 4 歲男性 Jing Jing 將在阿拉伯語中被稱為 Suhail。 每週將空運大約 1,800 磅新鮮竹子——大熊貓幾乎只吃竹子。

 到 11 月 20 日卡塔爾舉辦世界杯時，大熊貓將可供公眾觀賞。雖然中國國家隊沒有獲得世界杯參賽資格，但中國企業已經參與了賽事重大項目的建設，包括 主體育場。

 週三，一名兒童在卡塔爾豪爾觀看中國贈送的兩隻大熊貓中的一隻。

 大熊貓是一種極少在野外繁殖的脆弱物種，被視為中國的國寶和象徵。 野外大約有 1,800 只，還有 600 只被圈養。

 中國已向包括美國在內的大約 20 個國家派遣大熊貓，作為改善與外國關係的外交工具，但卡塔爾是中東第一個接收大熊貓的國家。 近年來，中國一直在加強與該地區國家的關係，儘管台灣的緊張局勢和俄羅斯在烏克蘭的戰爭等外交問題使中國與西方的關係緊張。

 中國駐卡塔爾大使周健在歡迎儀式上說，大熊貓是“和平的象徵”。

 “讓我們祝愿兩隻可愛的大熊貓在卡塔爾的新家過得幸福、健康成長，”他在推特上發布的演講稿中說。 “願他們給大家帶來更多的愛、驚喜和歡樂！

Giant pandas around the world。🐼

As of 2019, there are 27 zoos in 22 countries outside of mainland China 🇨🇳 (Australia , Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Qatar, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, Scotland, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Russia, Taiwan, Thailand, and United States) that have giant pandas. These zoos have contracts with China to house these pandas for a few years. 

An exception are the three pandas held at Taipei Zoo, which are owned by the Taiwanese government. Giant pandas are on the IUCN Red List* so part of the reason these contracts exist between China and international zoos is to try to help the species reproduce before they are brought back to their native land. For this reason, pandas are treated very well.

* Note: The International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data Book, founded in 1964, is the world's most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of biological species. More details here. 

To Europe  🇪🇺 

Germany 🇩🇪 :

In Berlin Zoo, Berlin, Bao Bao (1978–2012) was one of the first two giant pandas in Germany and became—for a time—the oldest known panda in zoos. He was together with the female panda Tjen Tjen (who died in 1984) given to West Germany by China in 1980. Between 1991 and 1993 Bao Bao was loaned to London Zoo. In 1995, back in his Berlin home, another female named Yan Yan was sent on loan from China in an attempt to mate Bao Bao. In spite of several artificial insemination experiments there were no offspring. Yan Yan died in 2007. In summer 2017, giant pandas returned to Berlin, when Jiao Quing and Meng Meng arrived on breeding loan from China. In September 2019, Meng Meng gave birth to twin panda cubs.

France 🇫🇷 : 

ZooParc de Beauval, Saint-Aignan, Loir-et-Cher, France is home to Huan Huan (F) and Yuan Zi (M) since 15 January 2012. She gave birth to two cubs in 2017 but only one survived, Yuan Meng. She also gave birth to two other cubs in 2021 : Petite Neige and Fleur de Coton. Both of them can be seen through a live camera in the zoo.

Belgium 🇧🇪 : 

Belgian zoo Pairi Daiza hosts five giant pandas; Hao Hao and Xing Hui since April 2014. Tian Bao was born in Pairi Daiza in 2016; he is the baby of Hao Hao and Xing Hui. In 2019, Hao Hao gave birth to a male and a female.

Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 :

Tian Tian and Yang Guang are the pandas that are housed in Edinburgh Zoo in the UK. They live in 275,000 pounds suites and have organic food flown in from the Continent. They are on loan from China and will return in 2023. "Tian Tian and Yang Guang have been put in enclosures designed by animal psychologists, which come complete with dens, private pools, a viewing platform and a room where the pandas will be given health check-ups.” In their new habitats, each panda has a climbing frame that will enable them to see each other over the tops of their enclosures. The design of the habitat is to resemble their natural habitat in the wild. They have caves to sleep in and rocks where they can lie.

Austria 🇦🇹 :

The former elephant enclosure became the Panda House at the Tiergarten Schönbrunn Zoo with a well-structured grounds (1015 m²) adapted. These pandas are also fed a nutritious diet, and provided with proactive medical care and a dedicated nurse team—one of the most important aspects of the panda attitude. Air-conditioning and a fog machine were installed in their habitat to keep the pandas safe and happy on hot summer days.

Finland 🇫🇮 :

Finnish Ähtäri Zoo also hosts two giant pandas named Lumi (F) and Pyry (M). They arrived in Finland 18 January 2018 and opened for public 17 February, after one month of quarantine. They were named after the snowstorm that prevailed at the time they arrived in Finland. Lumi means snow in Finnish, while Pyry is the equivalent of snowfall.

Spain 🇪🇸 :

The Zoo Aquarium in Madrid is the home of Bing Xing (M) and Hua Zuiba (F), since 2007. They gave birth to twin cubs on 7 September 2010.[11] Another cub, Xing Bao (F), was born in 2013 and in September 2016 Chulina (F).[12] The zoo was also the site of the first giant panda birth in Europe, Chulin (M) in 1982 whose parents, Shao Shao (F) and Chang Chang (M), arrived in 1978. Chulin (M, 1982) was the first panda to be born in captivity in the western hemisphere by artificial insemination.

Denmark 🇩🇰 :

On 4 April 2019 Copenhagen Zoo received two pandas, Xing Er, and Mao Sun. The pandas live in a brand new enclosure designed by Bjarke Ingels Group and civil engineer company MOE.

Netherlands 🇳🇱 :

The Dutch Zoo Ouwehands Dierenpark houses two giant pandas named Xing Ya and Wu Wen. They live in a 3,400-meter2 Chinese-style enclosure. Wu Wen gave birth to a cub on 1 May 2020.

To Australia 🇦🇺 :

Adelaide Zoo in Australia houses two pandas, Wang Wang and Funi, who were earlier loaned from China. They were loaned to Australia in 2009. They live together as male and female but also live with six red pandas. Space was created to provide comfort for the pandas but do not have the exhibit so big that the panda species would not be able to interact. In each inside room, there is "deep litter" which is a type of mulch to provide a clean inside for the pandas to live in.

The landscape of the exhibit was designed to mirror the native home of the two pandas, China. The giant panda exhibit is over 3,000 square meters and gives the pandas the options such as moving outside to lie on cool rocks or to bath in waterfalls. The two pandas that the Adelaide Zoo in Australia holds also have the option of staying inside in either air-conditioned rooms or in more natural caves to provide comfort for the pandas. The exhibit also has new 24-hour closed-circuit television to observe the pandas and how they interact with one another as well as other species in the exhibit. There is also a public viewing terrace under a bamboo canopy to accommodate the crowds but also to manage the privacy of the pandas. The zoo has specialist keepers just for the pandas as well as vets on hand at the zoo to make sure the pandas are well taken care of and protected.

To Asia 🌏 :

In Asian zoos, a diet of mostly gruel and bread is fed to pandas. In an experiment on how nutritious the pandas' diet in Chinese zoos is, two 5-day feeding trials were conducted. The pandas were both different age. The younger panda ate more bamboo than the older panda did. Gruel, however, can cause problems for the panda's digestive system. The diets of pandas in captivity do not consist of enough bamboo, which can be harmful to their wellbeing.

In a study done on pandas in China to test for brominated flame retardants, polychlorinated biphenyls, and organochloride pesticides in the giant panda's tissues, results stated that chemicals such as PCB and PBDE were found in the panda's tissues. Factors that contribute to the chemicals found in the tissues of pandas are diet and inhalation of polluted air. In February 2014, at China's Zhengzhou Zoo, a 7-year-old female panda named Jin Yi died. Torture allegations were denied by Zoo officials.

Singapore 🇸🇬 :

The largest panda exhibit built in Southeast Asia, this exhibit spans 1,500m². Simulating the bears’ natural habitat with lush plantings, boulders, and water features, the state-of-the-art biodome is also temperature- and humidity-controlled to ensure the pandas’ comfort. River Safari has two pandas named Kai Kai and Jia Jia on a 10 year loan. On 14 August 2021, Jia Jia successfully gave birth to a panda cub named Le Le.

Taiwan 🇹🇼 : 

Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan were sent by mainland China to Taiwan in 2008 as part of an exchange program. The couple has two cubs, Yuan Zai, born in 2013, and Yuan Bao, born in 2020. The two pandas were given to Taiwan rather than leased, thus them and their offspring are Taiwanese-owned. Tuan Tuan died in 2022.

South Korea 🇰🇷 : 

Ai Bao (lovely treasure) and Le Bao (pleasant treasure) were sent by President Xi Jinping to South Korea in 2016 as a state gift. Ai Bao naturally conceived and gave birth to Fu Bao (happy treasure) on 20 July 2020. Fubao is the first panda to be born in Korea. The family currently resides in Everland, a popular theme park in Korea. Fu Bao received global attention when a video of her went viral on Youtube. Watch here

Japan 🇯🇵 :

Ri Ri and Shin Shin joined Japan's oldest zoo, Ueno Zoo, in 2011. In 2012, they had a baby panda who did not survive long. But in 2016, Shin Shin gave birth to Xiang Xiang. After nearly four years, the couple were found mating again, and in 2021 Shin Shin delivered twins, Xiao Xiao and Ray Ray.

Malaysia 🇲🇾 :

Liang Liang and Xing Xing were sent to Zoo Negara, Malaysia on 21 May 2014 under the Giant Panda International Conservation Cooperation Agreement Programme. The agreement requires all giant panda cubs to be returned to China once they reach between 24 months and four years old. As of 2021, three panda cubs have been born in Zoo Negara—Nuan Nuan (born 18 August 2015), Yi Yi (born 14 January 2018) and Sheng Yi (born 31 May 2021).

Indonesia 🇮🇩 :

Cai Tao and Hu Chun were introduced to Taman Safari Indonesia in September 2017. Cai Tao and Hu Chun were born at the Bifengxia Panda Base in Bifengxia, Ya'an, Sichuan, China. The arrival process of Cai Tao and Hu Chun had been carried out for a long time, marked by the construction of the "Panda Palace" Istana Panda , which would later become their home in Taman Safari. Cai Tao and Hu Chun have travelled more than 4,400 kilometres, taking off from Shuangliu International Airport in Chengdu, China on 28 September 2017, travelling five and a half hours until arriving at Soekarno–Hatta International Airport. After undergoing an adjustment period of approximately two months, the two of them finally began to be displayed in November 2017.

To North America 🌎 

United States 🇺🇸 : 

Zoo Atlanta has several giant pandas being loaned from China. The loan fee that the zoo pays goes towards the conservation of giant pandas. The zoo itself has given over ten million dollars for giant panda conservation. Their projects include infrastructure, research, and management.

In April 2003, the Memphis Zoo became one of only four U.S. zoos to exhibit the giant panda. One male and one female giant panda ("Ya Ya" and "Le Le") share their 3-acre (1.2 ha) home with several other species native to China, in the first Memphis Zoo exhibit to be built as a zoogeographical exhibit. The buildings, plant life and even the sounds of China are represented in this $16 million exhibit.

At the Smithsonian National Zoological Park, zookeepers provide various forms of enrichment to their giant pandas and switch up their routine. They provide honey, apples, and leaf-eater biscuits inside the panda toys. The toys are usually made of plastic, rubber, and bamboo to ensure that the pandas don't break the toys too easily. Giant Pandas are allowed to play with water bottles, burlap bags, blankets, boxes, and fruitsicles—frozen fruit juice and water with cut-up fruit inside. The exhibit itself includes a room with a waterfall and rocky outcrop, a den, and several sustainable design features. There are green roofs, a solar hot water system, and natural material for the visitor paths. Not only is the exhibit sustainable, but it also creates an environment that allows for the pandas to stay at a cool temperature when it is hot outside while providing areas for privacy. Short trees, shrubs, pools, and streams, allow them to stay comfortable at all times. The National Zoo has had 4 cubs: Tai Shan, Bao Bao and Bei Bei, who all live in China (Bei Bei was sent to China on 19 November 2019.) The 4th, born 21 August 2020 is named Xiao Qi Ji 小奇蹟 (Mandarin 小奇蹟  is Chinese for "Little Miracle") born when his mother, Mei Xiang was 22—the oldest female panda in North America to give birth.

The San Diego Zoo had Giant Pandas on-loan from China from 1996–2019 as part of the breeding program that successfully boosted the Giant Panda from "endangered" to "vulnerable." The agreement for the San Diego Zoo to house the breeding pair of Bai Yun and Xiao Liwu ended in 2019, and the pandas have been set to be returned on 27 April. The San Diego Zoo has stated that it will try to negotiate with the Chinese government to renew the partnership.

Mexico 🇲🇽 :

The Chapultepec Zoo (Zoológico de Chapultepec) is one of the four zoos of Mexico City, and it is especially famous for its success in giant panda breeding; in 1980 Chapultepec Zoo became the first institution outside of China to successfully breed the previously endangered species in captivity. The first bear born, Xeng-Li, lived only eight days after its 10 August birth but was accidentally smothered by its mother, Yin-Yin.

In total there have been eight live births at the zoo. The most famous panda to have lived at the zoo is Tohui (1981–1993). As of November 2019, the two female giant pandas who live at the zoo, Shuan Shuan (b. 1988) and Xin Xin (b. 1990), are the oldest Giant Pandas in captivity.

The pandas at Chapultepec are special in that China does not have ownership. The original pair was given to Mexico and subsequent pandas have all been born prior to the change in policy from gifting to loaning. Zoo officials have also come to an agreement with China that any new offspring born at Chapultepec will belong to China. However, these pandas will be allowed to stay at the zoo (in contrast to other institutions, where offspring have to be returned to China after reaching five years of age).

Canada 🇨🇦 : Giant pandas Jia Yueyue and Jia Panpan were the first pandas to be born in Canada. They were relocated to China in 2020 due to a bamboo shortage caused by supply chain issues. 

世界各地的大熊猫。🐼

 截至2019年，在中国大陆以外的22个国家拥有27家动物园🇨🇳（澳大利亚、奥地利、比利时、加拿大、丹麦、芬兰、法国、德国、卡塔尔、印度尼西亚、日本、马来西亚、墨西哥、荷兰、苏格兰、新加坡 、韩国、西班牙、俄罗斯、台湾、泰国和美国）拥有大熊猫。 这些动物园与中国有合同，可以在几年内收容这些熊猫。

 台北动物园饲养的三只大熊猫是个例外，它们归台湾政府所有。 大熊猫在世界自然保护联盟红色名录*上，因此中国和国际动物园之间存在这些合同的部分原因是试图帮助该物种在被带回故土之前进行繁殖。 正因如此，大熊猫受到了很好的对待。

 * 注：国际自然保护联盟濒危物种红色名录，又称 IUCN 红色名录或红皮书，创建于 1964 年，是全球最全面的全球生物物种保护状况名录。 此处有更多详细信息。

 甜甜和阳光是英国爱丁堡动物园的大熊猫。 他们住在 275,000 磅的套房里，吃着从欧洲大陆空运过来的有机食品。 它们是从中国借来的，将于 2023 年返回。“甜甜和阳光被安置在由动物心理学家设计的围栏中，里面有巢穴、私人游泳池、观景台和一个可以为熊猫提供健康的房间 检查。” 在它们的新栖息地中，每只熊猫都有一个攀爬架，使它们能够在围栏顶部看到彼此。栖息地的设计类似于它们在野外的自然栖息地。它们有睡觉的洞穴和睡觉的岩石 他们可以说谎。

 奥地利🇦🇹：

 以前的大象围栏变成了 Tiergarten Schönbrunn 动物园的熊猫馆，并经过了结构合理的场地（1015 平方米）的改造。 这些大熊猫还得到了营养丰富的饮食，并得到了积极的医疗护理和敬业的护士团队——这是熊猫态度最重要的方面之一。 栖息地安装了空调和造雾机，让大熊猫在炎热的夏天安全快乐。

 芬兰🇫🇮：

 芬兰 Ähtäri 动物园还饲养着两只大熊猫，分别是 Lumi (F) 和 Pyry (M)。 他们于 2018 年 1 月 18 日抵达芬兰，并在隔离一个月后于 2 月 17 日向公众开放。 他们以他们抵达芬兰时盛行的暴风雪命名。 Lumi 在芬兰语中的意思是雪，而 Pyry 则相当于降雪。

 澳大利亚阿德莱德动物园饲养着两只早前从中国借来的大熊猫旺旺和福妮。 它们于 2009 年被借到澳大利亚。它们作为雌雄同居，还与六只小熊猫生活在一起。 空间的创建是为了给熊猫提供舒适，但展品不要太大，以免熊猫物种无法互动。 在每个内部房间里，都有“深层垃圾”，这是一种覆盖物，可以为熊猫提供干净的内部空间。

展览的景观设计反映了两只大熊猫的故乡中国。 大熊猫展区面积超过 3,000 平方米，为大熊猫提供了多种选择，例如搬到外面躺在凉爽的岩石上或在瀑布中沐浴。 澳大利亚阿德莱德动物园关押的两只大熊猫也可以选择住在空调房或更自然的洞穴中，为大熊猫提供舒适。 该展览还配备了全新的 24 小时闭路电视，可以观察大熊猫以及它们如何与彼此以及展览中的其他物种互动。 竹棚下还有一个公共观景台，可以容纳人群，也可以管理熊猫的隐私。 动物园有专门的大熊猫饲养员和兽医，以确保大熊猫得到妥善照顾和保护。

 亚洲🌏：

 在亚洲动物园，大熊猫的饮食主要是粥和面包。 在一项关于中国动物园大熊猫饮食营养状况的实验中，进行了两次为期 5 天的喂养试验。 熊猫的年龄不同。 小熊猫比大熊猫吃的竹子多。 然而，稀粥会给大熊猫的消化系统带来问题。 圈养大熊猫的饮食中没有足够的竹子，这可能对它们的健康有害。

 在中国对大熊猫进行的一项研究中，对大熊猫组织中的溴化阻燃剂、多氯联苯和有机氯杀虫剂进行了检测，结果表明在大熊猫的组织中发现了多氯联苯和多溴二苯醚等化学物质。 造成大熊猫组织中化学物质的因素是饮食和吸入受污染的空气。 2014年2月，在中国郑州动物园，一只名叫锦衣的7岁雌性大熊猫死亡。 动物园官员否认了酷刑指控。

 根据大熊猫国际保护合作协议计划，亮亮和星星于 2014 年 5 月 21 日被送往马来西亚国家动物园。 该协议要求所有大熊猫幼崽在 24 个月至 4 岁之间返回中国。 截至2021年，国家动物园已诞生三只大熊猫幼崽——暖暖（2015年8月18日出生）、一一（2018年1月14日出生）和盛一（2021年5月31日出生）。

 印度尼西亚🇮🇩：

 蔡涛和胡春于2017年9月被介绍到印度尼西亚野生动物园。蔡涛和胡春出生在中国四川雅安碧峰峡的碧峰峡大熊猫基地。 蔡涛和胡纯的抵达过程已经进行了很长时间，以建造“熊猫宫”Istana Panda 为标志，这将成为他们在 Taman Safari 的家。 蔡涛和胡春于2017年9月28日从中国成都双流国际机场起飞，历时5个半小时抵达苏加诺-哈达国际机场，行程超过4400公里。 在经历了大约两个月的调整期后，两人终于在2017年11月开始亮相。

 去北美🌎

 美国🇺🇸：

 亚特兰大动物园有几只从中国借来的大熊猫。 动物园支付的贷款费用用于保护大熊猫。 动物园本身已经为大熊猫保护捐助了超过一千万美元。 他们的项目包括基础设施、研究和管理。

 2003 年 4 月，孟菲斯动物园成为美国仅有的四家展示大熊猫的动物园之一。 一只雄性和一只雌性大熊猫（“亚亚”和“乐乐”）与其他几种中国本土物种共享 3 英亩（1.2 公顷）的家园，这是孟菲斯动物园的第一个动物地理展览。 这个耗资 1600 万美元的展览展示了中国的建筑、植物甚至声音。

 在史密森尼国家动物园，动物园管理员为他们的大熊猫提供各种形式的丰容，并改变他们的日常生活。 他们在熊猫玩具中提供蜂蜜、苹果和食叶饼干。 这些玩具通常由塑料、橡胶和竹子制成，以确保大熊猫不会轻易弄坏玩具。 大熊猫可以玩水瓶、麻袋、毯子、盒子和水果棒——冷冻果汁和水，里面装着切好的水果。 展览本身包括一个带瀑布和岩石露头的房间、一个书房和几个可持续设计特色。 有绿色屋顶、太阳能热水系统和游客通道的天然材料。 展览不仅是可持续的，而且还创造了一个环境，允许大熊猫在外面很热的时候保持凉爽的温度，同时提供隐私区域。 矮小的树木、灌木、水池和溪流，让他们始终保持舒适。 国家动物园有 4 只幼崽：泰山、宝宝和贝贝，它们都生活在中国（贝贝于 2019 年 11 月 19 日被送往中国。）第 4 只出生于 2020 年 8 月 21 日，名叫小奇吉小奇踪（ 普通话小奇迹是“小奇迹”的中文意思）出生时，他的母亲梅香 22 岁——北美最年长的雌性大熊猫。

 1996 年至 2019 年，圣地亚哥动物园从中国租借了大熊猫，作为成功将大熊猫从“濒危”提升为“易危”的育种计划的一部分。 圣地亚哥动物园安置白云和小立武繁殖对的协议于 2019 年到期，大熊猫已定于 4 月 27 日返回。 圣地亚哥动物园已表示，将尝试与中国政府协商续签合作伙伴关系。

 墨西哥🇲🇽：

查普尔特佩克动物园（Zoológico de Chapultepec）是墨西哥城四大动物园之一，尤其以成功繁育大熊猫而闻名； 1980 年，查普尔特佩克动物园成为中国境外第一个成功圈养以前濒临灭绝的物种的机构。 第一只熊 Xeng-Li 在 8 月 10 日出生后仅活了八天，却被其母亲 Yin-Yin 意外窒息。

 动物园总共有八个活产。 在动物园生活过的最著名的熊猫是 Tohui（1981-1993 年）。 截至 2019 年 11 月，住在动物园的两只雌性大熊猫栓栓（生于 1988 年）和欣欣（生于 1990 年）是圈养中年龄最大的大熊猫。

 查普尔特佩克的熊猫很特别，中国没有所有权。 最初的一对送给了墨西哥，后来的大熊猫都是在政策从赠与变为借出之前出生的。 动物园官员还与中国达成协议，在查普尔特佩克出生的任何新后代都将属于中国。 然而，这些大熊猫将被允许留在动物园（与其他机构不同，后代必须在满五岁后返回中国）。

 加拿大 🇨🇦  ：大熊猫贾悦悦和贾盼盼是第一批在加拿大出生的熊猫。 由于供应链问题导致竹子短缺，他们于 2020 年搬迁到中国。

What is the Golden Boot ? 

The Golden Boot is the award given to the top goal-scorer at each edition of the World Cup. 

• If at the conclusion of the tournament two or more players are tied at the top of the list with the same number of goals, the award will go to the player with the most non-penalty goals, and if they are still tied, it will go to the player with the most assists. 

•While there has always been a top goal-scorer at the tournament, the specific award has been given since 1982.

• It was known as “The Golden Show” until its re-christening The Golden Boot in 2010.

It's pretty amazing what a football tournament can achieve’

More than 20,000 volunteers are helping to deliver the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ – the biggest sporting event ever to be held in the Middle East and Arab world.

Among the volunteers is 28-year-old Alaeddine Masmoudi from Tunisia. He is supporting Spectator Services at Al Janoub Stadium, which is hosting seven matches during the tournament.

Alaeddine discussed his volunteering journey and pride at participating in the first World Cup in the region.

What convinced you to be a Qatar 2022 volunteer?

I used to volunteer and organise events back in Tunisia. Having a World Cup organised by an Arab country is extraordinary and could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Qatar is also full of cultural diversity, which makes everything great. I am also a huge football fan so this is ideal for me!

How are you finding Qatar so far?

I am overwhelmed by the beauty of this country. I heard a lot about it but I was surprised by the cleanliness, organisation and discipline. Everything is in order.

Describe your role during the tournament.

My role is simple but important. We help the fans make the most of their journey and ensure they have a smooth entry into the stadium and enjoy the game. If a fan needs help or has a problem with their ticket, we will help them to find a solution as quickly as possible.

Talk us through a normal day as a Spectator Services volunteer.

On a shift day, I wake up after a good rest and start the day with a healthy breakfast and a shower. I put my uniform on and head to the stadium, where I gather with the other volunteers to check-in and listen to the briefing from our team leader. I then head to my assigned location and wait for the fans to bring their positive energy. During free time, I try to explore Qatar or head to the FIFA Fan Festival to watch the games with my friends.

What skills are you learning during your volunteer journey?

I have learned the meaning of teamwork and the skills needed to work alongside people who I’ve never met before. I have also enhanced my leadership and communication skills, which are essential for any team dynamic.

What are some key takeaways from your volunteer experience?

I have loved interacting with people from all over the world and being exposed to different cultures. Another takeaway is being able to introduce Arab culture to many foreigners. It’s pretty amazing what a football tournament can achieve.

How does it feel to be supporting the first World Cup in the region?

I am overwhelmed to be a part of it! We’ve been talking about this event ever since 2010. Everyone in the region wanted to be a part of this prestigious tournament in this beautiful country. I am determined to make the most of this journey and learn as many skills as I can. I’m also looking forward to expanding my network of contacts.

French duo cycle 7,000km from Paris to Doha to support Les Blues at Qatar 2022

 Epic three-month journey from the Stade de France to Lusail Stadium

Frenchmen Gabriel Martin and Mehdi Balamissa arrived in Qatar for the FIFA World Cup™ after a ‘life-changing’ 7,000km cycle ride from Paris to Doha.

It took the duo three months to ride from the Stade de France to Lusail Stadium – where they hope France will retain the World Cup on 18 December.

Speaking on their arrival in Lusail just days before the tournament, Martin said: “It’s amazing to be here outside Lusail Stadium, where we hope France will win the World Cup for the third time – after claiming their first title at the Stade de France in 1998. It’s been a life-changing journey that took us to some amazing places like Istanbul, Petra and Jerusalem.”

Martin, a content producer, said: “It was not an easy journey. We faced many mechanical issues with our bicycles and had to battle injury and fatigue – but those hardships made completing the journey even more special.”

The pair came up with the idea to ride to Doha after travelling from France to Italy for a UEFA Nations League match last year. Encouraged by their experience, the duo made it their goal to ride all the way to Qatar for the first FIFA World Cup in the Middle East and Arab world.

Documentary filmmaker Balamissa said: “We love football – and we also love riding our bicycles. We know they offer a great way to travel because you can cover great distances and take your time to enjoy your surroundings. It was a long trip – but thanks to the strength of our legs, we created memories that will last a lifetime.” 

Riding over mountains in Turkey and across the Arabian desert were particularly memorable, said Balamissa.

“We were pedalling for four weeks in the desert and it was completely fascinating. Just listening to myself describe the journey sounds unbelievable – but the welcome and hospitality we experienced along the way made it worthwhile. It has been mind-blowing.”

Martin and Balamissa are the latest intrepid adventurers to complete extreme journeys to Qatar for the World Cup. Saudi adventurer Abdullah Al Salmi walked 1,600km from Jeddah to Doha in 55 days while Argentinean quartet – Lucas Ledezma, Leandro Pighi, Silvio Gatti and Matias Vercesi – cycled to Qatar from South Africa, a journey of 10,000km in 177 days.

“Even though we knew Doha and the World Cup were our final destination, we refused to get excited until we crossed the border,” said Balamissa. “We knew the journey would be difficult – but this amazing reception is very emotional for us.”

France got their World Cup campaign off to the perfect start with a 4-1 win against Australia at Al Janoub Stadium. They will play their second Group D fixture against Denmark today at Stadium 974, followed by a match against Tunisia on 30 November at Education City Stadium.

Voyage épique de trois mois du Stade de France au Stade de Lusail

 Les Français Gabriel Martin et Mehdi Balamissa sont arrivés au Qatar pour la Coupe du Monde de la FIFA™ après une balade à vélo de 7 000 km qui a « changé leur vie » de Paris à Doha.

 Il a fallu trois mois au duo pour rouler du Stade de France au stade de Lusail – où ils espèrent que la France conservera la Coupe du monde le 18 décembre.

 S'exprimant à leur arrivée à Lusail quelques jours avant le tournoi, Martin a déclaré: "C'est incroyable d'être ici devant le stade de Lusail, où nous espérons que la France remportera la Coupe du monde pour la troisième fois - après avoir remporté son premier titre au Stade de France en 1998. Ce fut un voyage qui a changé notre vie et qui nous a emmenés dans des endroits incroyables comme Istanbul, Petra et Jérusalem.

 Martin, un producteur de contenu, a déclaré : « Ce n'était pas un voyage facile. Nous avons rencontré de nombreux problèmes mécaniques avec nos vélos et avons dû lutter contre les blessures et la fatigue - mais ces difficultés ont rendu le voyage encore plus spécial.

 Le duo a eu l'idée de se rendre à Doha après avoir voyagé de France en Italie pour un match de l'UEFA Nations League l'année dernière. Fort de leur expérience, le duo s'est donné pour objectif de rouler jusqu'au Qatar pour la première Coupe du Monde de la FIFA au Moyen-Orient et dans le monde arabe.

 Le réalisateur de documentaires Balamissa a déclaré : « Nous aimons le football – et nous aimons aussi faire du vélo. Nous savons qu'ils offrent un excellent moyen de voyager car vous pouvez parcourir de grandes distances et prendre votre temps pour profiter de votre environnement. Ce fut un long voyage, mais grâce à la force de nos jambes, nous avons créé des souvenirs qui dureront toute une vie.

 Traverser des montagnes en Turquie et traverser le désert d'Arabie a été particulièrement mémorable, a déclaré Balamissa.

 « Nous avons pédalé pendant quatre semaines dans le désert et c'était complètement fascinant. Le simple fait de m'écouter décrire le voyage semble incroyable - mais l'accueil et l'hospitalité que nous avons ressentis en cours de route en ont valu la peine. Cela a été époustouflant.

 Martin et Balamissa sont les derniers aventuriers intrépides à avoir effectué des voyages extrêmes au Qatar pour la Coupe du monde. L'aventurier saoudien Abdullah Al Salmi a parcouru 1 600 km de Djeddah à Doha en 55 jours tandis que le quatuor argentin - Lucas Ledezma, Leandro Pighi, Silvio Gatti et Matias Vercesi - a pédalé jusqu'au Qatar depuis l'Afrique du Sud, un voyage de 10 000 km en 177 jours.

 "Même si nous savions que Doha et la Coupe du monde étaient notre destination finale, nous avons refusé de nous exciter jusqu'à ce que nous traversions la frontière", a déclaré Balamissa. "Nous savions que le voyage serait difficile - mais cet accueil incroyable est très émouvant pour nous."

 La France a parfaitement démarré sa campagne de Coupe du monde avec une victoire 4-1 contre l'Australie au stade Al Janoub. Ils joueront leur deuxième match du Groupe D contre le Danemark aujourd'hui au Stadium 974, suivi d'un match contre la Tunisie le 30 novembre au Education City Stadium.
