Vets Give Tai Shan a Clean Bill of Health
posted 2:52 pm Mon January 28, 2008 - Washington
The 2.5-year-old giant panda now weighs 157 pounds and is in excellent health.
After the exam, Tai Shan was returned to his indoor enclosure at the National Zoo's Fujifilm Giant Panda Habitat to recover from the anesthesia.
Animal care staff expect that he will be back on exhibit in his outdoor yard Tuesday. His parents, Mei Xiang and Tian Tian, will remain on exhibit throughout this time.
