Two of the pandas - Hua'ao and Jinyi - were evacuated to Bifengxia from the Wolong nature reserve on July 13, 2008 two months after the reserve was badly damaged by the Sichuan earthquake. The other four - Xiangge, Shuiling, Qingfeng and Wenyu - had remained at Wolong until just a few days ago.

"The six pandas were chosen carefully from those born in 2007," said Zhang Jinguo, deputy director of the Beijing Zoo. "They get on well with each other; they are all healthy, they adapt well to change, and last but not least, we took into consideration their looks."

"When we flew eight pandas to Beijing for the Olympics it was a great success. The public loves them and we have been planning this move for a long time."

"Fresh bamboo is delivered to Beijing Zoo from a plantation created in Henan Province when pandas were introduced there in 1955."

According to Zhang, Beijing zoo has been holding a series of activities to welcome the six pandas. "We held a seminar on panda protection a few days ago. In the next few days, we will be staging an exhibition about panda conservation."

In order to make sure the pandas settle in well, three of their favorite keepers from the base will travel with them to Beijing and stay with them for several months.

The pandas will be introduced to the Beijing public on May Day and are scheduled to remain in Beijing Zoo for one year.
