We visited the Chengdu Panda Research Base of Giant Panda breeding.   These guys are so much fun to watch!  The youngsters are playful and it's so entertaining to watch them play ball or wrestle each other.  We learned there are about 1,800 pandas left in the world and this facility houses about 80. Their mission is to care for the pandas and create an environment for natural breeding.  They claim to be very successful.  We also saw the very rare red pandas,  I'd never seen those before!  The pandas were just a really fun morning while we are here.  Hope you enjoy the pics!
