We are pleased to announce that one male red panda born and raised in Adventure World will be moving to Chausuyama Zoo in Nagano City.
　In order to maintain the species and genetic diversity of the red panda, he will be living in a new environment at a breeding loan for future breeding. First of all, we hope that the long-distance move will be completed safely, and that the local community will love the panda and give it a new life.
