In animal welfare news, special representatives help to promote the protection of giant pandas. Called pambassadors, six individuals were chosen from 60,000 applicants around the world to be global spokespersons for these endangered vegan animals. Ms. Huang Xi is a pambassador from China.

(In Chinese)
Huang Xi (f):
I think that everyone can do some tiny things to protect the environment. Everyone can be a pambassador. Everyone can be a guardian for Mother Earth. Protect the pandas. Protect the environment. Protect the future of humanity!

In English
Pambassador group (m & f):
We love pandas!

ANCHOR: The pambassadors’ term begins with one month of learning about pandas at the Chengdu Panda Base in southwestern China. It is a non-profit organization committed to raising pandas to enhance the wild panda population. The base is involved in wildlife research and breeding, conservation education, and educational tourism. In addition, it provides a home for over 80 giant pandas as well as other species. Dr. Zhang Zhihe is the Director.

(In Chinese)
Dr. Zhang Zhihe (m):
The place where pandas live is one of the world’s 30 biodiversity hotspots. The area’s biodiversity, environment and eco-system are the treasures of everyone in the world. Protecting them is protecting us.

(In English)
Chengdu Panda Base visitor (m):
We come from Townsville in Australia, and one of the most important things we do is visit the panda, here in Chengdu, so it’s beautiful. Very, very, cute animals. In Chinese Group of girls: We love pandas.
