Po was sniffing the air a lot for awhile ?!?



Lun Lun pulls him out of his corner ...



Po climbs back quickly, and after awhile, settles in for a nap (notice the one leg up )

~~Right Doxie those widdle legs climb like big

...he climbs to the top of his mountains; no quitting, nor camping for him. Though it kind of keeps you on the edge of your seat sometimes! :blink:

What's Po watching so intently on Monday? His mother, of course!!





And at the end of the day a very close up of Po

wish I could hold him~too sweet

Queenie, Po hasn't moved much today ~ it's been a very lazy day!!

But he did climb up to the apex of the hammock structure and played for awhile!

Doxie So glad you caught the zoomed-in version of Po's climbing~you can see how he uses his footsies & his grip/claws must be so strong~
~his balance is so good too, in how he swings back on the limb after losing footing, in this video from yesterday too

..he crosses over at the top the other way ~ facing us this time & slips and almost falls once :blink:~ but catches himself and then loses footing~ but swings around up there until he can swing back on the limb. He is a daring young man!

Panda Cub Updates

Friday, July 22



The pandas are welcoming a new face. Hello, I am Sheena and I have traveled from Outback Station to the world of Pandas. It is amazing over here and the pandas are incredibly fun to work with on a daily basis. I am picking up my new routine and hopefully the pandas are getting used to seeing me around all the time. I already miss the wonderful animals in Outback Station, especially the Kune Kune pigs. However, the pandas are making this a smooth transition, and it is exciting to learn about and care for them. Po is quite a unique giant panda, from what the other panda keepers have been telling me. He is the first cub I have worked with and so it is all new to me. Every day so far he has been showing me the ropes and making sure I know what he likes. One of his likes is pieces of banana, which I like to give him because he looks pretty adorable trying to eat them. I haven’t figured out what he dislikes yet, but I am sure with his BIG personality, he will let me know.

Sheena Braman,
Keeper I, Mammals
