Three pandas' August birthday, Ocean Park presents ice cakes to celebrate their birthday
Haiyuan Park has been closed since last Wednesday in order to cooperate with the government's epidemic prevention measures. The park announced today that it would wish the three giant pandas Anan, Yingying and Lele their August birthdays.
Female giant panda Yingying and male giant panda Lele will turn 15 years old in August. The garden has concocted a colorful three-tiered ice cake made of bamboo, sweet potato, carrot, Fuji apple, plus bamboo shoots, Sha Ge, fragrant pear and pumpkin for decoration. The top layer of the cake is shaped like a birthday peach, and its name and age are written.
The park did not arrange for Yingying to take a photo to celebrate, but Lele took the ice cake on his behalf because Yingying was skeptical and happy, and is now recuperating. Yingying and Lele are in good physical condition and successfully mate naturally for the first time in April this year. According to the park, Yingying has experienced some typical pregnancy symptoms since mid-July, including decreased appetite, increased rest time, etc. However, these are not ruled out as false pregnancies, and will continue to closely observe Yingying’s hormone levels and behavior changes, and provide timely information to the public latest news. The garden party continued that since the chance of successful conception in natural mating is generally higher than that in artificial insemination, he hopes that there will be good news for "adding a baby" this year.
