lmao whose brilliant idea is that using a living being as symbol of reunion?

Probably Xi. The more random things he can declare war over the better in his mind probably.

This was before Xi. Hu Jintao was the PRC Gen Sec, and the pandas were accepted by the pro-unification Taiwanese president Ma Ying-jeou of the KMT.

A sign of Taiwan and China relations? Sounds about right.

So sad. Saw Tuan Tuan last year.

I know animals and people die all the time, but it’s still sad to hear about it. Reading about a specific death is always more emotional than any statistic.

Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, the two pandas, take their names from the Chinese word for "reunion" = "Tuan Yuan". So yea... sign of things to come

Now it is just " yuan" left... As that word means end! Perfect!

Is that like naming them "re re" and "union union"?

Man, that's a tough lot to be named Re-re.

Tuan Tuan survived an earthquake when he was young. The earthquake damaged the zoo he was in, and he wandered in the wild for a few weeks. Then somehow he found his way back to the zoo. It was considered a miracle back then.
After all that, he died young in a zoo. This is just so sad.

Pandas would be extinct if it weren't for zoos and sanctuaries.
