Bai Yun Gives Birth to Baby
Panda, Daddy is Shi Shi
Born August 21, 1999
A baby Giant Panda Bear was born to Bai Yun on Sunday, August 21, 1999 at
the San Diego zoo. People all across the U.S. and the world are heralding
the arrival of this newborn, giving increased hope for this endangered species
that numbers around 1,000.
Successful mating and birth in the wild is a difficult and special event.
Births in captivity are even rarer. This new panda, as yet to be named, is
a result of an artificial insemination program at the world famous San Diego
zoo. The father is Shi Shi. At birth, a panda cub weighs about 5 ounces,
so the new arrival is very tiny.
