The zoo made an announcement on social media that the three pandas will possibly leave Belgium this fall, but they don't know the exact date.

In February 2014, Pairi Daiza welcomed Hao Hao (female) and Xing Hui (male), the giant panda couple, as part of a partnership with China Wildlife Conservation Association. In 2016, Hao Hao gave birth to Tian Bao (male), followed by twins Bao Di (male) and Bao Mei (female) in 2019.
