Guangzhou Chimelong Safari Park threw a pawsome birthday bash this week for Mei Zhu, its six-month-old giant panda cub! Born on June 18, Mei Zhu has captured hearts 🐼❤️ with her rapid growth—from a tiny 178 grams to a healthy 10.88 kilograms. Talk about a glow-up!
Her mom, Meng Meng, is no ordinary panda: she’s the eldest of the world’s only surviving giant panda triplets, who turned 10 this year. Keepers at the park say both mother and cub are thriving thanks to round-the-clock care. 🥕🎍
Giant pandas remain a global symbol of conservation, and Mei Zhu’s milestone highlights China’s ongoing efforts to protect these beloved black-and-white icons. Who else is rooting for her next adventure? 🌍🐾
