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

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

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.
