9/12/2003: Newborn panda thrives
The newborn from three weeks ago is doing quite well, and "It's a Boy!" They couldn't work out whether it was male or female until its second exam, which you see above from Wednesday. They "stole" the baby from its mom for a mere six minutes while mom was eating.
Cute little smiling laddie.
There are only about 1200 pandas in the world.

Any word on the twin?
Undertoad Friday Sep 12 12:38 PM
The twin didn't survive.
Griff Friday Sep 12 01:13 PM
Thanks Toad! The girls love the animal pics.

Cute little baby panda. Big difference from the little speck on his mama's chest last time UT posted a pic. of him. I haven't been following though, UT. Did the other baby end up being stillborn?

So, the twin died and the turd lived?

Thanks dave for pointing out the obvious, but I was asking UT if he had any more specific info. other than "twin didn't survive".
Undertoad Friday Sep 12 01:59 PM
I tried to get more info on the other but didn't find anything. But I did find they've put video of this very exam online. (Click on "It's a Boy") It's fun to watch, because in the middle of it, the little bear lets out a few squeaks. They don't do very much to the cub, but he protests anyway. (You can even see the hands of the press photographer who took the above shot)

From the zoo site:
"The second twin, whom zoologists had expected to be stillborn, was birthed some three days after the first. It lived for a week before succumbing to PIV, or Panda Immunodeficiency Virus."

I think some of the daily spam I get may have some products that might help him out.Of course, isn't the entire problem that Pandas are so stoned all the time they just lay around instead of mating anyway? Or is that the Koalas?

Nah. Actually, the mpeg of that episode a friend tossed me was quite disturbing.
It was just an odd concidence, really, and I wanted to see what, if any, response the quote would draw.

It really is quite remarkable the variety of things you find in Chinese groceries these days, isn't it, Syc?

Cool link, Els. For only $10 you can be officially nuts.

Ok clearly I must log in more often. But I repeat myself. Now, did the two of you not have massive fun some time back over photo retouching?
If it is you two, and you're now seemingly more civil... Bueno, bueno. If it is not you two, I apologize.
