Wang Jia, 27, had come to the zoo with her boyfriend to see Siija and said that the TV was a nice touch for the panda's enclosure.

"But it would be even better if Sijia could stay in Yunnan forever and have a cub here in the future, so that she won't feel lonely at all," she said.

Wang Guanqing with the wildlife park said the zoo is negotiating with staff members from Sijia's original home, hoping to keep Sijia, the only panda in Yunnan, and maybe even find her a mate in the future.
