Tapei Zoo’s Yuan Zai has been unveiled to the public in Taiwan, with long lines queued up at the zoo to see the cub cavorting around her enclosure with her mother on January 6, 2014.
Yuan Zai’s debut had long been anticipated on the island of 23 million people.
With delighted visitors passing in front of her enclosure , Yuan Zai showed off her climbing skills before retreating to mother Yuan Yuan’s embrace and then heading off for a nap.
Zoo officials say they will be able to accommodate 19,000 visitors a day to see Yuan Zai, whose mother and father came to Taiwan from China in late 2008.
