Mother panda Lin Hui has been very attentive to her new cub and her behavior suggests she might give birth to another cub sometime today. ZooBorns will keep you posted.

    You can hardly recognise them when they are so little.

    Austria had a successful birth too! In Zoo Vienna “Fu Long” was born on 23rd august 2007 and that without artificial insemination. Also I learned there was a successful birth in 1982 at Zoo Madrid, Spain. But I dunno what became of this baby.
    But Fu Long is healthy and thriving.
