Poor Tan Tan in Kobe Oji Zoo is the only panda there now. Fourteen-year-old Kou Kou died in 2010 :( According to Chinese media, Kou Kou had been given an anaesthetic while vets tried to extract semen to help him breed with his partner, Tan Tan. The panda's death has added to the sense of crisis in diplomatic relations between Japan and China at the time.
