Chiang Mai Zoo Panda Baby!

Posted by Jaxon on May 28th, 2009

Chiang Mai Zoo Baby PandaChiang Mai Zoo’s panda, Lin Hui, has given birth to a healthy female baby panda at 10.39am Wednesday! Why is this such a big deal? Well, pandas apparently have a very low sex drive and births are very rare. Thailand is only the third country outside of China to succesfully breed a panda in captivity. The other two are U.S. and Japan.

The two pandas Lin Hui and Xuang Xuang are on loan from China in 2013. Under the loan programme, Chiang Mai Zoo can keep the baby panda for two years.

You’ll have to wait about a month before you are allowed to see the baby panda in the zoo though.
