The specific schedule will be announced once it has been officially decided. 1. Giant pandas returning home Ryo Hama, 2-4 years old, female Yui Hama, 8 years old, female Aya Hama, 6 years old, female Kaede Hama, 4 years old, female 2. Background of returning to Japan In August of this year, the contract period for the joint giant panda conservation project currently underway between Japan and China expired, and as a result of discussions between both sides, it was decided that the four giant pandas “Rauhin,” “Yuihin,” “Saihin,” and “Fuuhin” would be returned to Japan in June, when the
temperature will be relatively cooler, so as not to be a burden. Her mother, Liangbin, who is currently 24 years old, is approaching old age, and experts at the Chengdu Research Base for Giant Panda Breeding told her that it would be desirable for Liangbin to spend her time peacefully in a relaxed environment in China, where facilities and medical systems are in place for elderly pandas to live safely, and she decided to return to China. The children, 8-year-old Yuihama, 6-year-old Saihama, and 4-year-old Kaedehama, will return to China to find partners for future breeding. We have decided to send the four pandas off with the hope that they will be able to live healthy and happy lives, and that each will play a role in connecting new lives. 3. About quarantine The four animals will be isolated and quarantined before departure. The quarantine period is scheduled to be
approximately one month prior to departure, and during this period, the exhibition will be held behind glass. We will announce the details of the release as soon as they are decided. 4. About the future Thank you for supporting the joint giant panda conservation project for the past 30 years. We hope that the four giant pandas born in Shirahama, including “Ryohama,” “Yuihama,” “Ayahama,” and “Kaedehama,” will live happily in China, and that the circle of giant pandas will continue to expand. Last September, the park’s joint giant panda conservation project, which started in 1994, reached a major milestone of 30 years. We strongly hope that the joint project will continue, and will continue discussions with the Chinese side to make further contributions to the conservation of giant pandas. 5. Profile of the giant panda returning home Rauhin Date of birth: September 6, 2000 (24 years old) Place of birth: Adventure World Gender: Female The first giant panda born in Adventure World. As a child, he had a very mischievous personality and loved playing with tires and balls on the playground. “Ryohama” raised many children as a kind mother, and became a panda mother who is as good at raising children as her mother, “Meimei”. Yuihin Date of birth: September 18, 2016 (8 years old) Place of birth: Adventure World Gender: Female At birth, it weighed 197g, making it the largest panda cub born at the park. The name “Yuihama” embodies our wish to work together with the panda family that spreads all over the world to pass on the important things inherited from the “past” to the next generation, and to “connect” everything that transcends various values, cultures, languages, and species to create a sustainable “future” full of smiles. Its charm point is the point on its head. This characteristic became noticeable from around 4 months old, when the baby started walking on his own. Saihin Date of birth: August 14, 2018 (6 years old) Place of birth: Adventure World Gender: Female Weighing only 75g at birth, he was the smallest panda ever born at the park. Despite his small size, he received the love of his mother, Ryohama, and the way he worked hard to live his life brought courage and hope to people. The name “Saihama” reflects our hope that we will continue to add color to everyday life and create bright and positive smiles in the future. They are growing quickly and in good health without any major illnesses or injuries. Fuuhin Beach Date of birth: November 22, 2020 (4 years old) Place of birth: Adventure World Gender: Female Its birth in the midst of the spread of the new coronavirus has brought bright hope and healing to many people. The name “Kaedehama” reflects our hope that, like a maple tree that changes color and becomes beautiful in the fall, it will be loved and warmly watched over by many people as it grows abundantly. He has been very active since birth, and was so energetic that he almost rolled over from his mother’s belly.
