Su Lin Provides First Cub of 2011

2011-Jul-07

At 12:36 Local time on July the 7th 2011 Su Lin (Born at San Diego Zoo), gave birth to the first cub of the year.

When the Cub was first born, Su Lin was a bit surprised but after a few minutes a strong maternal instinct took over and Su Lin began to mother the new cub.

At 13:12 another cub was born but this was an underdeveloped fetus and soon died. The keepers immediately took away this cub.

Su Lin and Cub are both being watched very carefully by staff via CCTV cameras.

Well done Su Lin, and congratulations to the hard working staff of CCRCGP at Wolong.
