We hold many lectures that not only help you understand giant pandas,
- We host lectures that help everyone think about how precious life is and the importance of conserving rare animals, all thanks to our giant pandas! Ever since our panda family started getting lots of media attention on TV and in magazines, we've had more and more requests for lectures. In fact, we gave about 110 talks in 2022! At first, most of our lectures were for local schools, but lately, we've been getting requests from all sorts of places, like medical conferences and educational meetings. It's awesome that we can offer so many chances for people to learn about giant pandas, appreciate life, and reflect on parent-child bonds.
- The adorable panda babies
charmed households across Japan! - Back in March and April 2017, our pandas were a huge hit on TV! NHK's documentary show "Close-up Gendai+" aired "The World Watches! Panda Parenting ~180 Days of Close-up Love and Tears~," and "NHK Special" showed "Miracle Panda Family ~A Parenting Story of Love and Tears~." These programs were broadcast all over Japan, and a whopping 12.5 million people got to enjoy watching our adorable pandas!
