（单词翻译）

After 2 years of careful planning, a 2-hour delay because of bad weather wasn't too much to bear. This ARK held a pair of only one sort of animal, but that was enough.

It's a journey ended and a journey started and we are incredibly happy that they are here.

They are so cute and cheeky, you know. And you see, oh, you know, I feel good, you know.

Why are you interested in it?
'cause I had a Teddy since I was one.

What's his name?
Tabe, stands for Thomason's bed.

A police escort chaperon Wangwang and Funi to their new home with stuff for panda to their every naiad.

We are gonna have members of staff trying to creep in there and enjoy the comfort in the coolness during the hot days.

They are the only giant pandas in the southern hemisphere and are expected to directly generate more than 600 million dollars for the local economy with added benefits from the boost to vandalized profile in China.

If you know the place, then there are possibilities to invest in that place.

The pandas would spend a great majority of their time eating and sleeping, but there is hope they'll find time for other activities.

If the Funi and Wangwang have babies, it's gonna go ballistic. I mean it's just gonna be huge.
Easier said than done.

The female panda actually only wants to mate for about 4 days every year. Male pandas only want to mate for 2 days over the year. So you have to get the synchrony right.

The giant pandas would be in quarantine for at least 30 days, but the public will get a chance to see them behind glass from the 14th of December.
