Mei Xiang, the National Zoo's female giant panda,
is very pregnant and her cub could come as soon as this weekend !!
- Mei Xiang, a Great Panda at The National Zoo, is pregnant and her baby could come as soon as this weekend.
- The cub will be the first at the zoo since the beloved Bei Bei was born in 2015.
- There is a substantial possibility that Mei Xiang could reabsorb or miscarry a fetus, but scientists are hopeful.
This is good news and I'm hoping that everything goes well for her and the baby !

Re: Mei Xiang, the National Zoo's female giant panda,
It's panda-monium amid pandemic.
In a refreshing bit of good news out of Washington, Mei Xiang, the giant panda matriarch of the Smithsonian's National Zoo, gave birth to a cub Friday and immediately began cradling and caring for it, zoo officials said.
"A precious giant panda cub has arrived! We’re overjoyed to share that Mei Xiang gave birth at 6:35 p.m. and is caring for her newborn attentively," the Zoo tweeted Friday.
