Baby Pandas at the Toronto Zoo

It seems like forever ago that the Toronto Zoo announced Er Shun the giant panda had undergone artificial insemination, although it’s been less than a year – just last May. And then finally in September they were able to confirm that she was expecting. That delayed implantation in pandas made for a long wait. Throughout her pregnancy and the early weeks of her twins’ lives there was certainly anxiety. The giant pandas are critically endangered, and the Zoo’s breeding program is a key piece in conservation efforts. A lot was resting on this pregnancy!
