Panda Passage
In 2018, the Calgary Zoo excitedly welcomed adult pandas Er Shun and Da Mao and cubs Jia Panpan and Jia Yueyue for a five-year stay. During their time in Calgary, the giant pandas will reside at Panda Passage, a newly constructed, cutting edge habitat. The first project in Alberta to receive the prestigious Petal Certification, Panda Passage is the most advanced habitat in the world and promises a unique experience where visitors can discover so much about these charming and elusive animals. The Calgary Zoo is a leader in wildlife conservation, here in Canada and around the world. Each year the pandas are in Calgary, the zoo is contributing $1.4 million to support conservation initiatives for this vulnerable species, including breeding, habitat protection, reintroduction science, and research.
