Giant baby panda born at the zoo for the first time

Written by Daniel Boyle

Wonderful news comes from the Metropolitan Zoo. For the first time in l6 years, a giant baby panda was born there two days ago.

The zookeepers are very cautious. They say: "The first few days are too dangerous for a baby panda to survive. Most of the cubs born in zoos die."

The zoo director said: "It's too early to know its gender yet. we have to leave the mother panda and her baby alone to let its immune system develop."

The cub belongs to China and has to return there when it turns two years old.

The general public will have to wait three months before they can see it. Meanwhile, people can visit the zoo's website.
