From February 16, the first pair of giant panda twin babies born in Hong Kong will officially meet with the public at the "Giant Panda Journey" exhibition hall of the Ocean Park.
In the exhibition hall, two 6-month-old panda babies climbed and played on the branches and grass, cute and cute. In August last year, the Central Committee gave Hong Kong giant panda "Yingying" a gift to the Hong Kong people. At birth, the female giant panda weighs about 122 grams and the male giant panda weighs about 112 grams. Under the careful care of the Hong Kong Ocean Park nursing team for 24 hours, their weight has now increased to more than ten kilograms. From being toddler and stumble, they have grown into a lively and agile "tree climbing master".
In the future, as these giant pandas enter a new stage of growth, they will gradually learn more life skills. According to regulations, panda babies meet with the public from 10:00 to 15:00 every day, and it is estimated that up to about 5,000 people will have the opportunity to enter the museum to watch panda babies every day.
At present, the two giant pandas do not have official names. The giant panda twin baby naming competition hosted by the Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government and co-organized by the Hong Kong Ocean Park was launched on the 15th. Citizens are invited to name the two giant panda babies by observing their appearance characteristics, personality, interaction and warm and interesting life. The results will be announced in the first half of this year.
The parents of these twins, giant pandas "Lele" and "Yingying" are the 10th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland. The central government gave Hong Kong the second pair of giant pandas. The twin giant panda was born on August 15, 2024. It is the first giant panda cub that was successfully born in Hong Kong.
