Giant Panda Breeding Research Base is one of main interesting point in Chengdu, a big city in the south West of China. Pandas are really lovely teddy bears. At a first sight you'll soon fall in love with them.

The best period to see them "in action" is while eating, early in the morning. Actually they can only eat Bamboo, they can eat huge quantity (up to 15-20 kilos) every day. And they love it. If they don't eat too much, they can go hipothermia, that's also the reason they usually exagerate with quantities. And that may be also the cause of their fat aspect.

Pregnancy period of a Panda is not really predictable. What happens in reality is that the new borne in most cases is delivered prematurely. It may weight only 100 grams, that's also why it needs special attentions and has to be protected. Also from his mother, due to her size she may accidentally kill him.
