Four giant pandas to depart Japan for China
Four giant pandas will leave Japan's Adventure World in Shirahama, Wakayama Prefecture on June 28, 2025, and travel to China after years of delighting local visitors.
The pandas are Rauhin, a 24-year-old female and the first panda ever born at Adventure World, along with her daughters Yuihin (8), Saihin (6), and Fuhin (4). Rauhin, affectionately known as a "veteran mom,"has given birth to 10 cubs during her time in Japan.
With their departure, the only two giant pandas remaining in Japan are both residing at Ueno Zoo in Tokyo, until their scheduled arrival in China by February 20, 2026.
The announcement has sparked a wave of emotion across Japan, where many are expressing heartfelt goodbyes to the bears that have become a part of their lives.
