This video shows Taishan when he was a baby. Wasn't he cute?
Taishan and Meilan did not live in the same zoo, Meilan lived in Atlanta Zoo and Taishan was in Washington. Last Thursday, Meilan took a plane from Atlanta to Washington to join Taishan, they then took a plane from Washington directly to Chengdu, China. Chengdu is the home of giant panda.
Do you know which airline did the panda take? It is FedEx, and FedEx painted an airplane (Boeing 777 freighter) with Meilan's face. Meilan and Taishan were in this special plane.
