Exceedingly cute baby panda piccies!! I think they were from last summer, however, because I've seen them before.

In fact, I believe the site doing this research was affected by the recent earthquake. One adult panda died, but most were fine and were moved to ... Beijing? (where-ever the Olympics are being held). They were kinda desired to move for the publicity factor during the Olympics, but the move became mandatory after the earthquake. One of those moved pandas just had a pair of twin babies. There's a news video of the leetle thing actually dropping from her underside, to the floor. And then some shots of the newborns too. Can't at the moment find those recent news tidbits. But:

Here are some shots of the above pictured pandas, as 2 year olds in Beijing now.

Oh, and you really need to see the video of a baby panda sneezing!!! ROFL.....
