Scientists at the National Zoo, Washington, D.C. found a spike in hormone levels in Mei Xiang,the female giant panda that could mean she is carrying the next baby panda.
It is no secret that Americans love pandas. "Kungfu Panda" -NOTE:should be Gongfu in Pin Yin. Bumped from No. 1 movie spot bringing in $60 milliion. One of the five mascots for the Beijing Summer Olymoics is a panda, named Jingjing.
Washington Post,June 21, 2008 page B3:Female pandas often have pseudo-pegnancies in which their short breeding is followed by physical, hormonal and behavioral changes that mimic the real thing. It may be known by mid to late July.
Such is the Sino-American Economics of "All-love Panda Event." Hehehahahoho all the way and we shall learn the outcome of another Baby Tai-shan or otherwise?
