Everland's Youngest Baby Panda Turns 50 Days Old

Weight Increases Thirteenfold Since Birth: "Rapid Growth"

Everland, operated by the Resort Division of Samsung C&T Corporation, released an update on July 23 highlighting the remarkable growth of the baby panda born through the third case of natural breeding in Korea, now 50 days old.

The baby panda, residing at Everland’s Panda World and born to mother Ai Bao and father Le Bao at 10:53 a.m. on June 3, became the fourth female giant panda to be born in Korea, following her sisters Fu Bao (2020), twin pandas Rui Bao and Hui Bao (2023).

Everland revealed the latest update on its youngest baby panda, who has reached 50 days old, on the 23rd. Samsung C&T Corporation.

During a health checkup conducted on the same day, Everland reported that the baby panda weighed in at 2.3 kg—about 13 times heavier than her birth weight of 171g—demonstrating robust health and steady growth.

In particular, the baby panda has now opened both eyes in line with her developmental stage and has acquired enough neck strength to raise her own head. As her soft neonatal fur gradually sheds, her distinctive black markings have become even more pronounced, and she has started crawling on her belly, showcasing increasingly panda-like features as she develops.

Mother Ai Bao is also in good health, and attentive care is provided by Everland zookeepers such as Kang Cheol-won and Song Young-gwan, veterinarians, and panda experts dispatched from the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda.

Meanwhile, a nationwide contest to name the baby panda, held across Everland, PpupaTV, YouTube, Instagram, and the Zootopia Naver Café and other channels from July 13 to 19, received an enthusiastic response, with over 10,000 comments submitted.

Everland is currently consolidating the proposed names and reviewing the final selection process and announcement schedule for the baby panda’s name.

Kang Cheol-won, a zookeeper at Everland, stated, “Thanks to mother Ai Bao’s deep maternal affection and the devoted care of the zookeepers, the baby panda is growing up healthy,” adding, “We ask for your continued interest and support for the youngest member of our panda family.”

The adorable growth journey of the baby panda can be seen in detail through Everland’s and PpupaTV’s YouTube channels, blogs, and the Zootopia Naver Café.
