Panda Watch is a weekly blog by the Post that tracks the latest on the baby panda twins – the first to be born in Hong Kong – until they are ready to meet the public. To read our previous blog entries, click here.
Hong Kong’s first giant panda cubs are approaching their 100th day next week, growing beyond the most vulnerable period for both mother and babies.
The park has been regularly posting images on social media showing heartwarming moments between mother Ying Ying and her babies, as well the twins playing with each other mischievously.
To celebrate the 100-day milestone, Ocean Park will dish out signature Chinese traditional delicacies to visitors on November 23 and 24, while father Le Le will also be the first of the six giant pandas at the park to greet visitors after a hiatus.
While the cubs will not be meeting the public yet, live streams of their daily activities will be broadcast on a giant LED screen at the park twice a day starting November 23.
Special merchandise will go on sale and a new exhibit documenting the cubs’ journey so far will be on display.
