Edinburgh Zoo Giant Panda Cam

http://www.edinburghzoo.org.uk/pandacam.html

Please give the camera a moment to load. Yang Guang can choose to be inside or outside and can move freely between both whenever he wants. Pandas sleep a lot – up to 14 hours a day, so don’t worry if he doesn’t seem to be doing much except sleeping and eating – that’s what pandas do. The camera view may alternate between the indoor and outdoor enclosure at times. He can be quite hard to spot whilst he is sleeping outdoors so look carefully :)

The cam was inside and Yang Guang was outside!

We have swapped the cameras over as from 1/6/12. Now you will be able to enjoy Tian Tian’s antics on the camera below. Yang Guang is still be available for viewing - but exclusively through our Members Portal. If you want to keep watching him, then it’s easy, simply become a Member by joining today.

She is very bored and pacing up and down poor thing, I wonder why she doesn't go outside unless it is Raining

of course. That was sad to see poor little panda.

Fingers crossed for Tian Tian and Yang Guang this time Doogs, they have such a short breeding space in time don't they and it obviously failed last year. We are now on countdown for 11 days or 10 as of today bounce

Crying or Very sad

**whitestarling** Thu Oct 17, 2013 7:03 pm

That really is a Sad

to have gone so far Sad

in her pregnancy and the to loose it right at the very end.

**littlewid** Fri Oct 18, 2013 10:22 pm

Oh that is sad but as the article says, its quite common in Giant Pandas, not that it makes it any easier. I wonder why it often takes 3 or 4 pregnancies before they give birth to a cub?
