Giant panda cub Le Le (叻叻 Lè lè) has been introduced to snow in China and he seems to be having a “beary” good time after arriving there on Jan 16.

The Singapore-born cub is being quarantined in Huaying in Sichuan province and under the care of the China Conservation and Research Centre for the Giant Panda, which will determine his next home.

Le Le, who turns three years old in August, is expected to be quarantined for 30 days.

On Jan 30, the research centre posted a 1min 40sec video on China’s version of TikTok called Douyin.

The video caption, written in Chinese, explained that Le Le’s outdoor activities were paused because of a steep drop in the mercury at the snow-covered Huaying Mountain.

To let the panda gradually adapt to the lower temperatures and new environment, snow was brought indoors for Le Le, it added.

In the video, one of his handlers can be seen sweeping glistening white snow into a bucket outdoors. The temperature was at a withering 2°C at an altitude of 1,200m, according to the accompanying text.

The bucket of snow is then stacked on top of another pile of snow in an enclosure for Le Le to play with. Some bamboo shoots are placed at the side.

Initially, Le Le just gnaws on the bamboo shoots, seemingly uninterested in the snow.

He approaches the snow only after finishing his snack, first placing a front paw on it tentatively, then breaking the tightly packed snow apart with both paws.

By the end of the video, the lower half of his body is covered in snow and he even tries to bite into a small chunk of it.

The Douyin post has 10,000 likes and more than 700 shares as at Feb 2.

Come Jan 16, a VIP will be given special first-class treatment for his first trip abroad.

He will be “chauffeured” to the airport, where he will enter the plane via his own entrance, and will have the whole flight to himself, attended to by a crew of three onboard.

The VIP – or Very Important Panda, as Singapore Airlines (SIA) dubs it – is none other than Singapore-born giant panda cub Le Le (叻叻 Lè lè), who will be taking his maiden flight from Singapore to Chengdu. He will leave Changi Airport at 7.15pm on Jan 16 for Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport.

Under the terms of Chinese panda loan agreements, cubs born on foreign soil are generally returned to China when they turn two. Le Le made his final appearance at the Pavilion Capital Giant Panda Forest at River Wonders on Dec 13, 2023 and has been in quarantine in his “suite” - or what his keepers call a private den - since Dec 14, 2023.

“In preparation for his flight, he has undergone a thorough health check and assessed to be in the pink of health,” said SIA on Jan 15.

Le Le will be transported from Mandai to Changi Airport in a customised crate, on a temperature-controlled truck.

The crate, which measures 1.7m long, 1.1m wide and 1.3m high, took two weeks to build and would be Le Le’s “seat” on his 4½-hour flight onboard a Boeing 747-400F freighter. The crate also comes with a removable plywood board at each end to facilitate mealtimes and checks when needed.

To ensure that he moves into the crate voluntarily and gets used to it, panda keepers from Mandai Wildlife Group have been conditioning Le Le to enter the metal container with food rewards

At the airport, his crate will be loaded and strapped onto a pallet, which will then be loaded onto the main deck of the plane through the nose door. Talk about priority boarding.

The pallet will then be secured to the floor of the main deck to minimise movement during the flight.

While Le Le may not have an SIA cabin crew attending to him, he will be attended to by Mandai Wildlife Group’s assistant curator Trisha Tay and a veterinarian, as well as a keeper from China.

They will be seated in the upper deck and can easily check on Le Le to ensure that he is comfortable and calm during the flight.

The ambient cabin temperature will be maintained between 12 deg C and 16 deg C, similar to the temperature of Le Le’s habitat at River Wonders.

The panda cub will have a selection of up to 50kg of his favourites, such as bamboo, bamboo shoots, apples, carrots and pellets.

Mr Gajandran Sokayan, assistant manager for dangerous goods and special cargo at SIA, said the team spent the last five months “poring through every little detail to prepare for this special flight”.

“This includes little touches such as pre-cooling the aircraft prior to Le Le’s arrival, as well as the careful loading and strapping of his crate to the pallet and onto the main deck,” said Mr Gajandran, who has been with SIA Cargo for 51 years and facilitated the transportation of Jia Jia and Kai Kai from China in 2012.

Captain Nithaar Zain, the chief pilot, said the flight crew will take a gentler angle when taking off and landing to ensure maximum comfort of Le Le – his first giant panda passenger. He has flown the freighter for 16 years and transported live animals like horses, cows and sheep.

Before the flight, the pilots will meet with the keepers and veterinarian to review all procedures to ensure a comfortable flight experience, said SIA.

The red-carpet treatment does not end there, though.

Two SIA loadmasters will also travel to Chengdu ahead of Le Le’s arrival to welcome him and support his on-ground handling. One of them facilitated the operations when Kai Kai and Jia Jia arrived in Singapore in 2012.

They will work with the ground handlers in Chengdu to ensure that Le Le’s pallet is safely unloaded from the freighter, and his crate is transferred to his next mode of transport.

Upon his arrival in Chengdu at about 11.30pm, Le Le will be transported to a quarantine facility in Huaying, Guang’an City, in Sichuan province.
