Panda readies for China return with flight training

  • 12 years ago
On November 6, a special transport will be leaving Austria for Bifengxia reserve in China's Sichuan province. On board: Fu Hu, the little panda and star of Vienna's Schoenbrunn zoo. An endangered species, pandas can be seen outside Asia in only about a dozen zoos. But one of the most successful is Schoenbrunn, which has seen two births in the last five years and the only natural ones in Europe. Now, as is the practice with all foreign-born panda cubs, Fu Hu will be sent back to China where he will rejoin his peers in a large panda reserve. Duration: 02:10
