National Zoo to throw panda Tai Shan goodbye party

The Friends of the National Zoo are planning a goodbye party for D.C.’s favorite panda Tai Shan. The Associated Press reported that the four-year-old animal will be sent to China next month.
 
The agreement that allowed Tai Shan’s parents at the National Zoo called for any children they had to be returned to China for breeding purposes. The party will be held on Jan. 30.
