A noble and worthy charity based in America. They provide lots of essential supplies to the pandas and their keepers in China. If you have some money to spare please send it along to them. They were a great support to the pandas and the surviors around Wolong after the earthquake on May 12th 2008.
Who doesn't know about the WWF? They do such wonderful work not just with pandas but with all animals around the world.
It was back in the early 1980's that the WWF and the Chinese Government set up projects to study and breed pandas. Without them pandas could of been a lost cause already.
Chinese site full of stories and information about pandas.
A panda news site written in Russian. I can't say very much more about this site as I don't speak Russian, but the maintainer is very friendly and we sometimes swap stories.
Another site for our friends who prefer to read the news in German.
A brilliant French Language site.
The maintainer of this site was instrumental in providing most of the information in "The-Pandas".
A great group of people who love pandas and raise funds for the Wolong pandas. They have adopted a number of pandas between them. I managed to meet a few of them last year at the 4th Hug my baby convention last year at Bifengxia.
Great site that provides information about pandas who live out side of China in zoos around the world. Some of the photos in "The-Pandas" have been kindly provided by this site. Many Thanks to them.
Another great news site. Provides a lot of great articles, pictures and videos of the pandas around America, but also provides news about the other pandas around the world.
A wonderful site which mainly talks about panda related items you can buy.
A Panda information site made in association with the RZSS Edinburgh Zoo, to bring information about Giant Pandas to School Children.

Chinese site with news stories from Wolong and Bifengxia.
The site does have a link to the English verison but this always links to the CHinese version for me.

Adventure World has a collection of 6 pandas, Ei Mei, Rau Hin, Ai Hun, Ming Bin, Mei Hin and Ei Hin. Kou Hin was born there but has since moved to China.
The pandas at Adventure World have two names one Chinese, one Japanese which causes me confusion whenever there's a story about them.

Home to Ya Ya and Le Le, unfortunately Memphis Zoo is the only zoo in America with pandas that have not yet had a surviving cub.
Memphis Zoo has one of the fanciest exhibits, we saw in America and really is very impressive. This was the only zoo where visitors look at you in astonishment if you talk to them about pandas.
Still a very impressive zoo.

An amazing exhibit to see is the Orang-utan walk way, where their Orang-utans can move freely between their two homes by way of a rope walkway that goes over the heads of visitors.
Home to Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, who's names combined mean reunite in Mandarin. China offered the pair in 2005 as a gesture of good will between the countries. The pair did not move to Taipei until 2008 due to political reasons.
