Panda Research Base

Pandas are just as cute in person as the stuffed animals!! They really do look cuddly and lovable. In the first picture, you can see them eating bamboo -- just sitting there chewing away. In the second and third pictures you see them as they lounge in their habitat. Aren't they adorable? We were able to go to the nursery, although we could not take pictures. The infants in the incubators really do look like stuffed animals -- they are so tiny. The infants in the nursery are twins, which the staff rotates with their mother. In the wild, she would only care for one and the other would die. Here, they are able to raise both babies -- isn't that sweet?
