The Zoo Aquarium De Madrid 0 Euro Note is dedicated to the Madrid Zoo Aquarium (Spanish: Zoo Aquarium de Madrid), which is a 20-hectare (49-acre) zoo and aquarium located in the Casa de Campo in Madrid, Spain. The zoo is owned by the city, but is managed by the international entertainment operator Parques Reunidos. Opened in 1770, it is one of the largest zoos in Spain and one of the few zoos in the world that houses giant pandas. The zoo is a member of the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA) and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA). Its exhibits include the zoo, a petting zoo, an aquarium with 2,000,000 L of salt water, a dolphin exhibit, and an aviary. Facilities include several restaurants, a boat tour, and train tour. It is home to over 6,000 animals of 500 different species. In 1978, China presented the King of Spain with two giant pandas, Shao Shao and Quian Quiang. Their cub, Chu-lin, born in 1982, died in 1996. Chu-lin was the first panda born in captivity using artificial insemination in Europe. The zoo is now home to giant pandas Bing Xing (M) and Hua Zui Ba (F), who arrived in Madrid on 8 September 2007. Twin cubs, Po and De De, were born to them on 7 September 2010. They were conceived via artificial insemination. Read more
