Panda Bears

Panda Bears are smaller than a mouse at birth and weigh about 4 ounces. They can grow up to weigh 275 pounds. The wild panda's diet is 99% bamboo. The collective name for a group is a sleuth or sloth, where a group of Teddy Bears is called a hug. Sounds made by pandas are called bleats, honks and growls.
Teddy is being quiet today.

  2. I love to watch the Panda Cam at the National Zoo in Washington DC.

    There are other Panda cams that I know of:
    Atlanta, Memphis, China and San Diego
    Maybe more!

  3. Teddy makes more of a humming, comforting sound, but he is a great listener.
