According to today's TV news,
the giant panda Ling Ling at Ueno Zoo
died early this morning.
He was 22 years and 7 months old.
He came to Japan from China in November in 1992.
Were you happy in Japan, Ling Ling?
I hope you will say "Yes."
We all loved you so much.
I saw you last year-- on November 4.
You looked so calm.
Were you feeling ill then?
Thank you very much, Ling Ling.
I bid a final adieu to you, Ling Ling.
(last November when I visited Ueno Zoo)
