    At 7 a.m. on December 4, the Belgian-bound giant panda Hao Hao arrived safely at Chengdu Tianfu International Airport, accompanied by Chinese and Belgian experts. It was then taken to the Wolong Shenshuping Panda Base of China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda, where it will undergo a 30-day period of quarantine and receive professional care.

    Hao Hao went to Pairi Daiza in Belgium along with Xing Hui in February 2014 to carry out a 15-year cooperative research program on conservation. During the collaboration, both sides achieved significant results in areas such as breeding, scientific research, and public education, successfully breeding three cubs named Tian Bao, Bao Di, and Bao Mei.

    After March this year, Hao Hao began showing symptoms of ascites. Chinese and Belgian experts collaborated closely, with Chinese experts traveling to Belgium for consultation and treatment. Currently, Hao Hao is in a stable condition but requires ongoing medical support, hence the decision to return to China ahead of schedule. In preparation for Hao Hao arrival, the Wolong Shenshuping Panda Base has made comprehensive arrangements, including disinfecting the enclosures, ensuring an adequate supply of food and medicine, and assembling a professional team to provide full care and help it adapt to its homeland environment.

    At present, Hao Hao is in a stable health condition. According to the agreement, Xing Hui will remain in Belgium until the end of the cooperation period.
