Can someone tell me if there is still a black and white panda on exhibit at the Madrid Zoo?

Chu Lin, the giant panda at the Madrid Zoo, died in 1996. I don't think he has been replaced, though I believe there are red pandas. For a long time they had their original giant black and white panda (one of Chu Lin's parents?)on display, stuffed. I don't know if that is still the case. Chu Lin's death was a very big deal when it happened.

Chulin was a friend for all the Madrid´s children, and since he died no more panda´s has come to Madrid zoo. It was very sad to all of us and I hope someday Chulin´s semen will be used with a panda´s female to get a Chulin´s son...

Recently we have received a koala from Australia, it´s fully new in spanish zoos. smile
