The mama panda holds and plays with her baby
much as a human mama does, picking it up
in her arms and cradling it, not with her mouth as
dogs and cats do. 

Bamboo, of course, is his favorite food.

There are now 12 Giant Pandas in the U.S.
3 in Atlanta, 3 in Washington, D.C.,
2 in Memphis, and 4 in San Diego



Just ordered this children's book for Elena:

You Tube has adorable videos of pandas in action.
