Giant panda triplets born in China - The only surviving panda triplets in the world turn a 100 days old. Dubbed as the "miracle" triplets of China, the pandas were born in Chimelong Safari Park at Guangzhou, China on July 29. Nov. 5 marks the pandas' 100th day.
The giant panda triplets born in China are known to be the only surviving birth of triplets recorded in the world. According to a report by the Huffington Post, other giant panda triplets born in China have been recorded but not all three have managed to survive. Officials at the zoo state that four births of panda triplets were noted but not all survived as some had died due to being underweight or having physical defects.
All giant panda triplets born in China are recorded to have a weight of over 5 kilograms each. Zoo officials at the Chimelong Safari Park claim that the panda triplets are doing great. Yet, the giant panda triplets born in China reportedly take turns living with the panda mother as she cannot care for all three at the same time.
"It is imperative to help the triplets form a good relationship with their mother and keep them in close contact. We hope that they can live together if the cubs grow healthily," says Dong Guixin, the general manager of the Chimelong Safari Park in a report by the NYPost.
The 100th day of the giant panda triplets born in China is a milestone significantly important in panda cubs. Tradition states that pandas have to reach a 100 days old before they are given names. Chimelong Safari Park have already issued an announcement to the public stating they may give out names for the panda triplets.
The giant panda triplets born in China will be displayed to the public starting Wednesday in their home located in Guangzhou, China.
