  • #PandaStory: Now that Mei Xiang has introduced cubbie to the "playpen" (see previous video), there are times that she does not want to leave cubbie in the den ... especially when cubbie lets out those pitiful, plaintive cries.

    I was looking through my big brother Bei Bei videos, and here is a video that shows a keeper carry Bei Bei from the playpen in room 2, back to the den! Enjoy!

I find myself smiling, and sometines laughing, watching Mei and her little cubbie. Such precious moments for me.

    When Mei holds him near the edge, I know it won't be long before he'll probably do what big brother Bei Bei did and slip out of her paws and land on the floor. But - not to worry! The floor is not cement, the cub is well-padded and it's not as tall as it might appear in the video. He might yelp, but we've already heard him do that! She will teach him to be a tough little bear, just as she did with her other kids.

    It's so funny to see Mei Xiang's ears... they look like 2 buns on her head!.. sometimes the shape of her ears reminds me of Shrek... when she blinks and moves her ears she looks like a cartoon... Tian Tian must be so captivated by her....it's such a perfect colour combination of panda's white and black and bamboo greens and rock stone grey in the backdrop... cubbie seems so relaxed lying on mama's tummy while watching her eat though later covered in bamboos...cubbie seems not excited by playpen as long as he's separated from mama... such a lovely little pampered mama's boy!

      He'll learn to love it as he more than likely gets better traction ~ lots of good things happen here!

    Omg when does he start to crawl. He’s crying for his mama.

      He's trying hard to crawl! Some think he'll be walking before he masters crawling ... he gets those little legs up under his fluffy rump and tries so hard!

    I’m so afraid she is going to hurt him. She is rough sometimes.
