大熊猫幼仔香香周二在东京上野动物园庆祝一岁生日。
A year ago to the day, Xiang Xiang was born through natural conceptual to her parents Fairy and Billy (Japanese name Shin Shin and Ri Ri).
Since her days as a baby cub, Xiang Xiang has been enjoying eating apples and climbing trees everyday at the zoo as her throngs of adoring visitors look on.
"She has been growing very smoothly. We want visitors to continue to warmly watch over her development," a spokesperson for the zoo said.
During the day, the birthday girl was seen playing on a hammock that was handmade for her by staff at the zoo especially for her 1st birthday.
The energetic Xiang Xiang seemed delighted with her birthday gift and bounded around her enclosure, climbing trees and bars energetically.
Just before Xiang Xiang's birthday, the zoo lifted the maximum number of visitors allowed to see her per day from 9,500 to 15,000.
