HONG KONG — Hong Kong welcomed the birth of its first locally born giant pandas on Thursday, with their mother becoming the world’s oldest first-time mother of its kind on record, the theme park that houses them announced.
Ocean Park said in the statement that giant pandas have a “notoriously difficult time reproducing, especially as they age” and panda pregnancy is not readily detectable. “The birth is a true rarity, especially considering Ying Ying is the oldest giant panda on record to have successfully given birth for the first time,” Pong said.
