BirdLover:
They are having a virtual cub shower on Thursday, November 5th. Should be interesting.

He is just so laid back and cuddly! Easy to see why they take turns carrying him out - everybody would want a chance.

Our little panda boy down in San Diego just had his 9th exam. As if it is even possible for him to be cuter! But he is, especially those big blue eyes!

--- Quote from: carly on September 26, 2009, 16:39 ---When the cub is first born, he is like an eyases and can't regulate his body temperature until his fur comes in. He also can only nurse for short bursts so mom has to be with him constantly. Once the fur comes in she can leave him a bit longer as he won't be cold. Also now you will notice he will nurse for a longer time so he takes in more milk. Therefore mom can spend longer times away eating herself to fuel up.
Bamboo is not a very filling food which is why they have to spend so much time eating. For their bodies to convert the boo to milk requires alot of food and energy so Bai will be away for much longer periods of time now. But she is never too far away in case he needs her.

Insert chick for cub and pigeon for bamboo and milk and you pretty much have a hairy flightless peregrine there .... ;D
