Woo-hoo! There is a new baby in the National Zoo, too. ;)

Thanks for the link. I've been watching it on and off (time difference
makes it more difficult) and seen a lot of sleeping momma ;-) I would love
to catch a glimpse of the cub.

The cub is (presently) about the size of a US stick of butter (might be up
to 1/2 pound now) so it will be hard to see for a few weeks! By all
accounts Momma-Bear keeps it in her hand, held close to her breast for
warmth. The bears are mammals, but I've not heard anything about how they
feed/nurse the cubs. Pandas eat bamboo exclusively (as Koalas eat only
eucalyptus)... but I guess the newborn cubs must nurse?
