Description
Subject: Giant PandaName: Wang Wang
Age: 5 years
Sex: Male
Location: Adelaide Zoo, South Australia
Camera: Nikon D90
Editing: Corel Paintshop Pro X2
The pandas Wang Wang and Funi are living here in Adelaide for ten years, it was my first time visiting them and was surprised by how small they are! But they are such beautiful, gentle creatures and amazing to watch.
Found out that the females are only able to fall pregnant for 10 hours a year. No wonder their numbers are dwindling in the wild and also why they are so hard to breed in captivity. They also eat 40kg of bamboo each per day. That's pretty impressive!!

Thanks!! Yes, they are so beautiful. Funi was sleeping the day I visited, it was a shame as she's a cutie heh heh.
