There is something magical about Giant Pandas. Throughout the ages the furry black and white animals have always charmed and fascinated people. Maybe it’s their gentle nature or their roly-poly bodies, whatever it is, people love and can’t get enough of them.
In recent years, thanks to conservation efforts and diplomacy, China has been sending Pandas to different countries as part of an exchange program. Whenever a Panda is brought to a new zoo in a country they are met with lots of excitement, celebration, and fanfare.
Crowds flock to see the bears and much attention is lavished on them in the media and behind the scenes. Special habitats are constructed and a highly skilled team of handlers, zookeepers, and veterinarians are put in place.
Such was the case in 2008 when the Taipei Zoo in Taiwan received two Giant Pandas, a male named Tuan Tuan and a female named Yuan Yuan. Five years later, with the help of artificial insemination, the couple was able to have a baby.
Yuan Yuan gave birth to Yuan Zai, an adorable and healthy baby girl, in the summer of 2013. The tiny cub can be seen in this video with her mother, who is munching on some tasty bamboo. Apparently Yuan Yuan thought her baby was fast asleep, but the little tyke was actually wide awake and roaming around the rooms of their enclosure at the zoo.
The cub finally gets caught when she peeks her tiny little head into the room her mother is in. Yuan Yuan immediately gets up and lays down the law, gently grabbing her baby by the scruff of her neck and dragging her back to bed!
The scene is all too familiar, mom is just trying her best to put her little baby to bed and like all kids when it comes to nap time, Yuan Zai is less than thrilled at having to go to sleep. It’s wonderful to see that this mommy cares so much for her baby and is going off her instincts when it comes to her role.
These days the Giant Panda’s very existence is threatened and they are now classified as an endangered species. Part of why they’re so vulnerable is that their range is small, they only live in a couple of mountain ranges in Central China.
Those areas have become increasingly developed, with farmers and other industries clearing the land and forest. No one knows for certain how many of them are living in the wild and estimates place the number at anywhere from 1,500-3,000.
The conservation efforts of zoos are becoming vitally important to the continued growth and existence of a healthy Panda population, and Yuan Yuan and Yuan Zai are living proof of how these programs are working.

Humans Try To Take Away This Panda’s Ball. Now Watch His Adorable Fit As He Attempts To Keep It.
Out of all the toys that young children and animals have, there is always one that’s their favorite. Usually it’s a soft, plushy stuffed animal like a teddy bear that they end up growing attached to and they take it with them on all their adventures and just about everywhere they go. If it ever gets lost, misplaced, or taken away from them, it can be a very distressing experience.
For one adorable baby panda named Xiao Liwu, his favorite toy happens to be a small green ball. As you can see in this clip of him, he absolutely loves rolling around and holding onto his ball and won’t let anyone take it away from him, not even his caretakers! He gnaws at it gently and hugs it tightly against his little chest, making it plain to see that the ball brings him comfort. He’s looks like the sweetest baby bear and it brings back childhood memories watching him play with his toys.
Xiao Liwu lives at the San Diego Zoo and has called it home ever since he was born there in 2002. These days he is a full grown Giant Panda bear but when this video was recorded he was just a few months old. He represents and is part of the continued growth and existence of a healthy Panda population.
These days Giant Panda’s are under threat and they’re now classified as an endangered species. Part of why they’re so vulnerable is that their range is small. They only live in a couple of mountain ranges in Central China and those areas are being developed more frequently with farmers and other industries clearing the land and forest. While no one knows exactly how many of them are still living in the wild, estimates place the number anywhere between 1,500 and 3,000.
In recent years, thanks to conservation efforts and diplomacy, China has been sending Pandas to different countries as part of an exchange program. Whenever a Panda is brought to a new zoo in a country they’re met with lots of excitement, celebration, and fanfare. Special habitats are constructed and a highly skilled team of handlers, zookeepers, and veterinarians are assembled. The conservation efforts of zoos are becoming vitally important for the survival of Pandas and Xiao Liwu is proof of how these programs are working.
