TL/DR –

A pair of giant pandas, recently relocated to the National Zoo in Washington DC, are set to make their debut in January. The pandas have been described as having distinct personalities, with one having a big appetite and the other being somewhat of an introvert. These pandas are part of China’s ‘panda diplomacy’, an initiative in which pandas are sent to foreign zoos as a diplomatic gesture.
