NZ Panda update:
#PandaStory: Cub Day 2
"Our panda team observed Mei Xiang and her cub overnight and were happy with the behaviors they saw. As expected, Mei Xiang is being an excellent and attentive mother. She has already established positions for nursing and sleeping. Via the Panda Cam, the team watches Mei Xiang nurse her cub while sitting at the back of the den—often with her knee propped up on the wall—and sleep with it tucked in between her arms.

Mei Xiang and her newborn are getting into a good routine. Assistant curator Laurie Thompson observed that Mei Xiang seems to be able to get more rest with this cub. In previous years, Bao Bao and Bei Bei would vocalize when she attempted to lie down on her side.

Since birth, the cub has been vocalizing regularly with grunts and squeals. As time goes on, keepers are seeing more glimpses of it as Mei Xiang changes position. From what the team has observed so far, it appears to be strong and healthy! On behalf of the panda team and all of us at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute, thank you for your well wishes and support."

The latest report & videos from the National Zoo.

"Giant panda Mei Xiang and her newborn cub continue to do well. As Mei Xiang shifts from a resting position (laying down) to a nursing position (sitting up) and vice-versa, she occasionally holds the cub delicately in her mouth.

This morning around 7 a.m., she placed the cub on the floor of the den briefly. Over the next several days, we expect to see Mei Xiang “test” the cub’s tolerance to resting on the floor. Eventually, she will briefly leave the den to get a drink of water and urinate. If the cub vocalizes, Mei Xiang will quickly return to care for it.

Next door, the cub’s father Tian Tian is getting ready to celebrate a big milestone. He turns 23 years old Aug. 27! We’ll celebrate with a panda-friendly fruitsicle cake made by the Zoo’s amazing Nutrition team and some enrichment boxes filled with his favorite treats. Tune in to the Panda Cam around 9:30 a.m. Thursday to watch the festivities!"

New video from the Zoo. Good view of our lil stick of buttah! :loveheart2:
"While it’s always fascinating to follow a cub’s development, I was struck by how its tail has filled out and thickened since birth. A newborn panda weighs about 3 to 5 ounces at birth and measures about 5 to 6 inches in length. As assistant curator Laurie Thompson mentioned in a previous update, we should begin to see its black markings appear in the next few days.

Don’t forget to tune in to the Panda Cam around 9:30 a.m. tomorrow to watch father Tian Tian celebrate another revolution around the sun! He turns 23 years old Aug. 27 and will receive a panda-friendly fruitsicle cake and enrichment boxes filled with his favorite treats."

From Zoo Atlanta! Twins celebrate their 4th birthdays!

The only giant panda twins in the U.S. turn 4 today! While we weren’t able to host an in-person party opportunity this year, the Panda Care Team helped us make sure Ya Lun’s and Xi Lun’s friends and fans around the world didn’t miss out on the fun.

And now back to the National Zoo with a video from Doxie Mom!

"2020-09-03 Cubbie is in Excellent Hands, er, Paws
Video clips showing off Mei Xiang's ability to use her massive paws with very long, sharp nails to: gently lift cubbie up from the floor, shift cubbie's position while they are sleeping, move him from one breast to the other, hold him so she can clean him, stand up in a pitch dark den and not step on him, and along with her arms, provide a bed for him to lay on. Now that cubbie has more fur and can thermoregulate his own temperature, you'll see him more when Mei stands up, leaves the den, or even while they are sleeping as she doesn't feel the need to cover him all the time now. Disclosure: some of these clips are from yesterday."

EDIT: Cubbie is growing -getting closer to the size of a loaf of Velveeta!
