How's this for a double take? These two Red Panda Cubs were abandoned at birth by their mother, and since have been nursed by a mother dog. The pair was born June 25th at north
China's Taiyuan Zoo and are doing well thanks to their surrogate Mom.

"Their mother, the first lesser panda bred at the zoo, was taken in
from a nature reserve in the northwestern Shaanxi Province at the end
of April. No one knew she was pregnant. Her plump body and bushy hair
disguised her protruding belly until the babies were born," said zoo worker Ha Guo Jiang.
