Everland released photos on the 24th of a baby panda born through natural breeding in South Korea, now in its third week of life.

The baby panda, born at 10:53 a.m. on June 3 to mother Ai Bao and father Le Bao, who reside at Everland Panda World, is the fourth female giant panda born in the country, following older sisters Fu Bao in 2020 and twin pandas Rui Bao and Hui Bao in 2023.

In photos taken on the 23rd, when the baby panda was 21 days old, its slightly chubby body shows distinct black markings around the eyes, ears, shoulders, arms, and legs, characteristic of pandas, giving it a very panda-like appearance. During a health checkup conducted that day, the baby panda weighed 670 grams, indicating it has grown healthily, with its body weight increasing approximately fourfold from its birth weight of 171 grams within just three weeks.

Both the baby panda and its mother are currently in good health. Everland's chief keepers, Kang Cheol-won and Song Young-kwan, veterinarians, and panda experts dispatched from the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda are providing 24-hour close care to support Ai Bao's postpartum recovery and assist in raising the baby panda.

Everland chief keeper Kang Cheol-won stated, "Thanks to mother Ai Bao's skilled breastfeeding and parenting skills, which she demonstrated while successfully raising Fu Bao, Rui Bao, and Hui Bao, the newly born baby panda is growing faster than its older sisters."

The baby panda's growth can be viewed on Everland's official YouTube channel, the YouTube channel "Talking Zoo Ppoppa TV," as well as on Everland's blog and the Naver Cafe "Zootopia."
