     BBC News (May 11, 2008)-Edinburgh Zoo plans to bring a pair of giant pandas from China to Scotland.
Representatives from Edinburgh Zoo have recently returned from China. They signed a letter of intent (意向
书) there, making a promise to bring giant pandas to the Zoo.
     It has been suggested that the pair of giant pandas should be on loan (暂借) to the Royal Zoological
Society of Scotland (RZSS) for 10 years. The pair of giant pandas would give birth to babies during that time.
Edinburgh Zoo would be the eighth zoo in the Western world to care for the species if the project goes ahead.
     Zoo chiefs said that looking after the endangered animals could benefit conservation. David Windmill, chief
of RZSS, said, "Working with giant pandas means so much more to us than introducing a new species to our
collection. It is an opportunity to work on a global level with other conservationists to gain a better
understanding of the giant pandas, the threats they face, and what we can do to ensure their survival."
     At present, there are only around 1,500 giant pandas in the wild. RZSS has been working on the project for
almost a year, hoping to have giant pandas at Edinburgh Zoo by 2009, the year of the society"s centenary (一百
周年纪念日). Mr. Windmill said that the project has received strong support from the UK and Scottish
Governments. He also said that this must continue if the Zoo is to reach an agreement with the Chinese. As
part of the agreement with the Chinese Government, Edinburgh Zoo will work together with Chinese scientists
on research projects benefiting conservation in the wild.
     RZSS will also provide money to support giant panda conservation projects in the wild. Giant pandas live
in mountainous regions in central China and almost mainly feed on bamboo, which makes up 99% of what they
eat.
