大熊猫“丫丫”平安回到“老家”北京动物园

旅居美国20年的大熊猫“丫丫”，今天（05/29）凌晨平安抵达出生地北京。“丫丫”刚刚结束在上海长达一个月的隔离检疫期，现回到了北京动物园。

Ya Ya's health is stable and zookeepers have prepared a special feeding place for her as well as a tailor-made diet, care, and medical support. She will not be viewable by the public just yet as zookeepers say she needs time to adjust to her new environment given her advanced age. Pandas generally live 15 to 20 years in the wild, but can live up to 30 in captivity. Beijing Zoo says it will periodically release updates on Ya Ya through its official Weibo account.

“丫丫”健康状况很稳定。动物园管理员已为“丫丫”准备了专门的饲养场馆，制定了有针对性的饲养护理、医疗保障及营养健康等方案。管理员表示，由于“丫丫”已进入老年，回京后需要一段时间适应新的环境，现在不对外展出。大熊猫在野外通常能活15到20年，但在人工饲养的情况下可以活到30年。北京动物园将通过官方微博定期发布“丫丫”的相关信息。
