Bao-Bao

Bao Bao, the world’s oldest male panda, died at Zoo Berlin on the morning of August 22, 2012.
Bao Bao was born in 1978 and lived in Germany since November 5, 1980. He became 34 years old.

The zoo staff and his visitors noticed that his body started to show some signs of his old age during the past months. The cause of death will be know after the planned autopsy.

With much pain in my heart, I say goodbye to my favorite panda Bao Bao. Rest in peace my friend. In the next days, I will post the report of my last visit to Bao Bao (August 19-20, 2012) and a tribute to my number 1 panda.

Rest In Peace Bao Bao!

Pambassador Jeroen Jacobs
