1 REF.NO:ZN/EDU/25/2017 Malaysia s First Giant Pandas In 2014, the world s most well-known bear, the Giant Panda has arrived safely to their second home, Malaysia from Bifengxia Panda Base in China flown by the official carrier Mas Kargo. The eight-year-old pair s, Xing Xing and Liang Liang (formerly known as Fu Wa and Feng Yi) arrival to Malaysia represents peace and a symbol diplomatic relationship between China and Malaysia for 40 years. During the arrival, Xing Xing and Liang Liang were accompanied by a veterinarian and keeper from China, Dr Li and Mr Yang, to ensure that the bears were settled well in their new exhibit and also to train the local employees in the Zoo on the animal s husbandry and the plan for the next decade. After a long journey, Xing Xing and Liang Liang were housed at their new home, the Giant Panda Conservation Centre, which is located near the Ape Centre. The size of this centre is about 1,100 square meters with 18 meters height provided with visitor boardwalk with temperatures around 18 to 22 degrees Celsius at the Main Exhibition Hall. The landscape resembles the natural habitat of the Sichuan Mountain in China During this 1-month quarantine period, the bears were given the time to know the local zoo keepers and veterinarians and vice versa. These pair of Giant Pandas was ready for their debut to the public at the end of June In 2015 Liang Liang has given birth to an adorable female cub named Nuan Nuan just after 15 months Malaysia has receiving the pair of Giant Panda from China. This Malaysian sweetheart was the fastest captive born female panda cub with natural birth! The arrival of this pair of Chinese bears with the newborn cub will help to boost the number of visitors to visit the Zoo and also give Malaysians an opportunity to see the pandas without flying to overseas. Zoo Negara also hope that the Giant Pandas can also help to share their limelight with Malaysia s very own bear species, the Malayan Sun Bear. Indeed, it is a great opportunity for the Zoo to highlight on the endemic endangered animals in Malaysia on wildlife appreciation and conservation education Keeper s Profile Zookeeper, Azrennizam Bin Ibrahim or better known as Yob, has been working in Zoo Negara for 20 years. Originally, he was staying in Kampung Gajah, Perak, but he now makes Kuala Lumpur as his home. Work hard for what you love in taking care of animals is his life motto that drives Yob to continue working as a zookeeper. He was assigned at the Giant Panda Conservation Centre section ever since the Giant Panda arrived in Yob shares his advices to those who are interested in working with animals and one of them is being as an animal lover, you must love animals as much as you love your family. Originated from Terengganu, Edie Azwar Bin Abdullah is responsible for taking care of the Giant Panda ever since the Giant Panda arrived at the zoo. Earlier, Edie has joined the zoo for 16 years at Savannah and Mammal Kingdom section. The soothing and beautiful environment around the zoo while working is one of the reason that he decided for Zoo Negara as the second home. Do your best in every work you do is his life motto that enhances his passion towards his job as a zookeeper and his love for animals makes him happy and proud to be part of the family at Zoo Negara.
2 The giant panda s black and white coat and prominent black eye patches have made it one of the best known species, although it is among the shyest and rarest animals in the world. The giant panda is a solitary animal, which spends about two-thirds of its day feeding and the remainder resting. It stays with its mother for about 18 months, until it is independent enough to establish its own territory. At first glance, the giant panda would seem to resemble a bear, but in fact its features show it has a stronger affinity with racoons There are about 20 different species of bamboo that pandas will eat. However bamboo is so nutritionally poor that the pandas have to consume up to 20kg each day, which can take up to 16 hours. The giant panda has the largest molar teeth of any carnivore. Their lower jaw has an extra molar; their molar and pre-molar teeth are adapted to slice and crush tough plants stems.their strong jaws are capable of crushing bamboo stems up to 4cm in diameter The panda uses its stump-like tail like a brush to mark territory with scent produced by scent glands located PANDA FUN FACTS Although classed as a flesh-eater, the giant panda feeds almost exclusively on the stems, leaves and fresh young shoots of bamboo. The extra digit on the panda's hand helps them to tear the bamboo and their gut is covered with a thick layer of mucus to protect against splinters They may appear sedentary, but they are skilled tree-climbers and efficient swimmers. Pandas can takes refuge in the nearest tree when in danger from predators such as brown bears, leopards, or wild dogs. Its paws are broad with long retractile claws and furry undersides which help it grip when climbing. The Chinese once hunted it, believing that its pelt provided magical protection against evil spirits. Today, however, hunting carries strict penalties in The blind infants weigh only about 140g at birth and cannot crawl until they reach three months of age. They are born white, and develop their much loved colouring later
3 Malaysia s Giant Panda Family China and Malaysia signed a 10-year giant panda loan agreement in June The two pandas chosen to live in Malaysia are Fu Wa, male, and Feng Yi,female. They arrived in May Just 15 months later, Feng Yi gave birth to a giant panda cub on 18 August 2015, the result of natural mating done in May A check-up done on the newborn the same evening recorded the cub's gender as female and her birth weight as 175g. At a naming ceremony on 7 April 2016, the cub was officially named Nuan Nuan, which means "warm" and symbolises the good relationship between China and Malaysia. As part of the loan agreement, Nuan Nuan was returned to China on 14 November 2017, just four days before turning 2 years and 3 months old.

4 ALL ABOUT BLACK & WHITE PENGUIN MALAYAN TAPIR Malayan tapirs are solitary animals and they mark out large tracts of land as their territory however these usually overlap with other tapirs territory. They mark out their territory by spraying urine on plants and they follow paths that they have made in the undergrowth. The young tapir is very unique where, when the calf is born it does not have the same coat pattern as an adult but looks like a brown and beige striped watermelon on legs. Penguins are birds that cannot fly. Penguins waddle when they walk. They also have a torpedo-shaped body. This shape allows them to speed through the water at 25 miles per hour. During the breeding season penguins come ashore and nest in huge colonies called rookeries. Some rookeries include hundreds of thousands of penguins and cover hundreds of square kilometres. Zebra are very fast-moving animals, and can reach speeds up to 65 km per hour when galloping across the plains. This is just fast enough to outpace predators such as lions, they run in a zigzag pattern when being chased by a predator to make it more difficult for the predator to run after them. When zebras stand together, it is harder for predators to determine how many zebras are in the group. Each zebra s stripes are unique. They have different pattern of stripes each, just like human fingerprint. Zebras are very social animals and live in large called harems. ZEBRA
