Day 6 @ Chengdu Panda Base as Pambassador

Hi everyone!

幸浜 welcomed me in the morning. Too lazy to even get out of bed.












Scratches on trees by 幸浜.
He loves this tree and does it every day.


















Placing bamboo on platform and other areas
to give him some exersize.












Panda feces! The light colored ones are from bamboo shoot,
and the dark colored ones are from bamboo.












The dark colored feces have a nice smell like bamboo!
I'm not tasting it, just to let you know...












秋浜 peeking through the bars.


















And sleeping.


















So cute!


















Feeding 秋浜 apples.
This is also part of his exersize, to keep him
standing up for a while.


















And then we did a training for 幸浜with apples in ice to see if
he can find and take out his food from ice. This is to
train the pandas so that they can find food in winter in the wild.












"Ah, what is this?? Is it something fun??"


















"Hahaha, this is fun!!"












"And I finally took out the apple!!"


















"Don't you think I'm clever?"


















"And they even gave me Panda cake because I was a good boy!"


















And we did the training of blood testing again.












With all the CDTV (Chengdu TV) crew around.












秋浜 having the same training as 幸浜 in the afternoon.












"Haha, I can do better than my younger brother!!"


















"This ice tastes of honey!! Yummy!"


















Giving 幸浜 some exersize outside.


















And carried all the left over bamboo from his enclosure.
They only eat fresh bamboo, and these are the bamboos I gave him this morning.












In the front is 幸浜 and in the back we can see 秋浜
in the nextdoor enclosure.
According to their keeper,
秋浜 is always active and 幸浜 is always watching...
Today 幸浜 was fast asleep, and 秋浜 was drinking water
when I left their enclosures.
