Panda Twins On The Way!

Monday August 4, 2003
The San Diego Zoo announced today that more giant panda babies are on the way. The pregnancy was confirmed during a routine ultrasound of Bai Yun on Sunday, August 3, where it was discovered that the giant panda was carrying twins. This should set off another round of panda mania, like four years ago when Bai Yun gave birth to Hua Mei. And with twins, we should expect a double-dose of those adorable pandas!

Then there is the matter of paternity: exactly who is the father of the twins? Gao Gao, who mated with Bai Yun? Or Shi Shi, whose frozen sperm Bai Yun was artificially inseminated with? Read about what panda team leader Don Lindburg says in the Union Tribune.
