The two giant pandas living at Ouwehands Dierenpark in the Dutch city of Rhenen staged a charming debut(初次登台)for hundreds of long-awaited admirers on Tuesday afternoon.
After six weeks since their arrival on April 12, Wu Wen, the female giant panda, made tentative steps into her outdoor enclosure(围场). She threw herself at the first bamboo plant she saw and started to chew. Xing Ya, the male, sat on a rock to enjoy the early summer sunshine. Wu Wen and Xing Ya, both three-and-a-half-year old, will stay at Ouwehands for 15 years. Native to south central China, they belong to a species which counts only 1,864 individuals.
"Both are in perfect health and adapt well to their new home," said Zhang Hongwen, chief economist of China’s National Forestry and Grassland Administration. "I am glad to see that Wu Wen and Xing Ya are so popular in the Netherlands. Their stay will surely promote Sino-Dutch cooperation relating to the protection of forest and biodiversity.”
Martijn van Dam, Dutch State Secretary for Economic Affairs, said, "From today on, Dutch children will get to know Wu Wen and Xing Ya. They can get inspired by all the beautiful and powerful things nature has offered. China has succeeded in stopping the decline of the number of pandas. China also makes efforts to maintain the natural habitat of the giant pandas. We would also like to contribute to that."

The two giant pandas living at Ouwehands Dierenpark in the Dutch city of Rhenen staged a charming debut(初次登台)for hundreds of long-awaited admirers on Tuesday afternoon.
After six weeks since their arrival on April 12, Wu Wen, the female giant panda, made tentative steps into her outdoor enclosure(围场). She threw herself at the first bamboo plant she saw and started to chew. Xing Ya, the male, sat on a rock to enjoy the early summer sunshine.

Martijn van Dam, Dutch State Secretary for Economic Affairs, said, "From today on, Dutch children will get to know Wu Wen and Xing Ya. They can get inspired by all the beautiful and powerful things nature has offered. China has succeeded in stopping the decline of the number of pandas. China also makes efforts to maintain the natural habitat of the giant pandas. We would also like to contribute to that."
