SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Zoo expects to have its renovated panda habitat completed in June, according to details described in its application to import two giant pandas from China submitted to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. The 168-page document was obtained by ABC 10News in a public records request.
The application to FWS obtained by ABC 10News was signed in February. Zoo officials subsequently traveled to China to meet the two bears selected to move to San Diego. The agreement with China to keep giant pandas at the San Diego Zoo is for ten years and has many other details strictly governing the care of the animals, access for Chinese experts, and protocols for various contigencies. That includes what would happen in the event of a panda death at the San Diego Zoo, something which did not happen the first time around.
