Panda Facts - In Black And White
Updated: 1:34pm UK, Tuesday 12 August 2014
Edinburgh Zoo is hopeful that Tian Tian the panda is expecting a little panda. Here are some facts about what she can expect.
:: The foetus does not start to develop until the final weeks of pregnancy.
:: A cub weights around 5.3oz (150g) at birth - that is 1,000th of a fully grown female panda. It grows up to 10 times its birth weight in the first five to six weeks of life.
:: The cub is born pink, finely covered in short, white, hair with tightly-closed eyes. These partly open at between 30 and 45 days and open fully a week or two later.
:: It starts to develop black patches after around a week. The cub starts to grow black hair on its patches a few weeks later.
:: After a month, the cub is beginning to resemble its giant panda parent but it has a longer tail.
:: It takes several weeks before the cub can crawl, and before then it cries loudly and often so its mother is aware of its needs for food and sleep.
:: Panda mothers lick their cubs often and stay with the cub for up to a month, by which time the cub can regulate its own body temperature and does not need its mother to keep it warm.
:: By 75 to 80 days cubs can stand and walk a few steps. Their eyesight is improving, as is their hearing and they are beginning to teethe.
:: At four months cubs are active, running about and climbing on their mother's back in play.
:: At five months they follow their mother and mimic her as they eat bamboo and climb trees.
:: The cub starts to eat solids at around six months.
:: It will get its permanent teeth at around the time of its first birthday when it will now weigh between 50lb and 60lb (23kg-27kg). It will be suckling only once or twice a day.
:: By the age of two, the same age that the cub starts to make its own way in the wild, the cub is likely to go back to China.
