22, China's state-run news agency, Xinhua, said that the China Wildlife Conservation Association...
... has made deals regarding "a new round of international cooperation for giant panda conservation" with both the San Diego Zoo and the Madrid Zoo, NBC News reports.
.
The resurgence of "panda diplomacy" comes as only four pandas remained in the U.S. at Zoo Atlanta.
.
Mei Xiang, Tian Tian and Xiao Qi Ji left the National Zoo in November, and Ya Ya left the Memphis Zoo in April, NBC News reports.
.
One male panda and one female panda could arrive in San Diego by the end of summer.
We are humbled by the potential
opportunity of continuing our
collaborative conservation efforts
to secure the future for giant pandas.
, Megan Owen, vice president of wildlife conservation science
at the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance, via statement.
A spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign
Ministry also issued a statement.
We look forward to further expanding
the results of scientific research on
the protection of endangered species
such as the giant panda.., Mao Ning, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, via news briefing.
... through the new round of
international cooperation,
promoting people-to-people
connectivity and enhancing civilian
friendship with relevant countries, Mao Ning, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, via news briefing.
NBC News reports that there are currently about 600 pandas in captivity around the globe and 1,800 in the wild
In her first public speech since leaving office, former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris left the internet baffled with a strange analogy—urging Democrats to “act like elephants.” Referring to a viral video of elephants at the San Diego Zoo huddling during an earthquake, Harris called on Democrats to “stand together” like the animals did. But the internet wasn't buying it. Social media erupted, calling the speech awkward, bizarre, and out of touch.

Tensions in the South China Sea have escalated sharply as China’s navy launched combat readiness patrols near the disputed Scarborough Shoal, a territory claimed by the Philippines. The drills, confirmed by China’s state-run Xinhua agency, were aimed at reinforcing Beijing’s control over the contested region. The provocative move follows multiple maritime confrontations and comes amid rising regional unease. Meanwhile, South Korea has reported a surge in Chinese installations in the Yellow Sea, further stoking concerns about China’s expanding maritime assertiveness.

China has called on the United States to protect the legitimate rights of international students following a temporary halt on new student visa interviews. The U.S. State Department paused visa processing as it expands social media screening amid heightened scrutiny. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning condemned the politicization of educational cooperation, warning that such policies harm the US’s global image. With over 100,000 Chinese students applying annually, tensions grow as visa restrictions threaten international education ties.
