TORONTO, ON, Monday, June 13, 2016: Our giant panda cubs turn eight months old today! Jia Panpan and Jia Yueyue continue to grow fast, weighing 14.4kg and 11.15kg. Although they aren't eating very much quite yet, they have now developed a keen interest in bamboo. Our Keepers have observed them both carrying small branches of bamboo leaf up the platform, reclining backwards like adult pandas, and nibbling away!

Thank you for joining us on this exciting journey as we continue to watch them grow.
Visit them in the Giant Panda Experience from 9:00am to 5:30pm daily.
