I know some have seen these babies, but this is the first time I saw so many pictures of them. Hope you enjoy. If thse don't make you smile, you have gotta have ice water in your viens.
This is for those that haven't seen the 16 baby pandas.
SICHUAN, China -- One zoo in southwest China has
its hands full with 16 baby pandas.
The Sichuan Wolong Panda Protection and Breed Center is dealing with the results of a
breeding boom -- 16 pandas have been born since July, 2006. The brood includes five
sets of twins. The cubs are weighed and measured every five days (see pics)
The heaviest tips the scale at just over 24 pounds, while the lightest weighs about 11 pounds.
The pandas are due to stop suckling by February, 2007 just about the time they'll start learning to
walk. Once weaned, the panda cubs will attend panda kindergarten. In the meantime, more little
ones are expected at the center since 38 giant pandas were artificially impregnated.
Enjoy!
