TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — A zoo in Taiwan’s capital received a pair of endangered red pandas from China on Saturday, in the first exchange of animals in more than a decade as tensions between the two sides run high.

The pandas, a 3-year old male and a 2-year-old female, will be in quarantine for a month and then acclimated to their new home in the Taipei City Zoo before they are unveiled to the public.
