The Edinburgh Zoo pandas are bidding farewell to Scotland and being moved back to China after 12 years.
Giant pandas Tian Tian (which translates as Sweetie) and her proposed mate Yang Guang (Sunshine) quickly became the star attraction of the city's zoo when they were first welcomed in back December 2011.
They were initially on a 10-year lease from Bifengxia Breeding Centre in Sichuan province after five years of negotiations between Scotland and China, however this was later extended during Covid due to both countries’ strict border policies.
