January 26, 2007: Panda explosion!

"This is for everyone who hasn't seen the baby pandas", says axlrosen, whose hip-hop/baseball name is A-Rose. I hadn't seen the baby pandas. They're great!

SICHUAN, China -- One zoo in southwest China has its hands full with 16 baby pandas.

The Sichuan Wolong Panda Protection and Breed Center is dealing with the results of a breeding boom -- 16 pandas have been born since July, 2006. The brood includes five sets of twins. The cubs are weighed and measured every five days.

The heaviest tips the scale at just over 24 pounds, while the lightest weighs about 11 pounds. The pandas are due to stop suckling by February, 2007 just about the time they'll start learning to walk. Once weaned, the panda cubs will attend panda kindergarten. In the meantime, more little ones are expected at the center since 38 giant pandas were artificially impregnated.

It looks like they develop bones later in life...

If anyone talks about eating these guys, my ass is going on a photo strike!!!

GREAT Friday IOTD!!

I like the one in the third picture that looks like he's fixing a jam in a laser printer on the floor.

What does one do in Panda Kindergarten?

...eat, shoots, and leaves...

Looks like they're working in a stuffed toy shop!

I wonder how their parents taste if they're slow-roasted and slathered with BBQ sauce? (there, LR...I didn't talk about eating the babies...)

WoW!!! Talk about Panda Express!

Here's the one in DC, just over a year ago:

It's Panda-monium!

You can see one live - and growing - in Atlanta.

Its all fun and games until...

I like to call that 3rd picture "uuuuuugghh... I'll never drink again...."

Do the pandas have to roll to move? Cause they look very incapable of even holding up their body weight.

What? There are photos of your striking ass? Or your ass being struck? What is the donkey's name? There was one up here named Pasado, and he was struck repeatedly until he died. Only later were there photos, a movie to be precise. I can't remember the name of the movie.
