Newly mature pandas enjoy happy time in tropical Hainan

"We offer each panda 75 kilograms of fresh bamboo every day, about three times their daily need for food. Each panda has its own slide, toys and a swimming pool that is about 7 square meters, to make their daily life more enjoyable," Lyu said.

"Five keepers, who have received special training in Sichuan, plus one expert from the panda base, provide daily care and work out exquisite recipes – locally grown bamboo, steamed bread, carrots, apples , and many others, for the pandas," Lyu said, adding bamboo shoots sent from Wolong are their special favorites.
