The last time we saw Red Pandas, a loving pup was nursing a pair of newborns back to health. But at the Lincoln Children's Zoo, it's a human that stepped in to save the day this time. A tiny babe born to a milk-less mama is being hand-fed by zookeepers in order to stay alive.

I could go for some frozen goodness right about now! Ice cream, margarita, even a Popsicle, I'm not picky. Now several zoos treat animals to cold relief (no artificial sweeteners or alcohol, of course), but do you know what goes into snacks like Tai Shan's Birthday "cake"?

How to make baby pandas even cuter: give them a playground! I don't know what "panda kindergarten" is, but this is quite possibly the cutest 20 seconds ever caught on film.

Pandas Given Chicken Soup to Soothe Stress
I guess chicken soup is good for the panda's soul, too. According to the Telegraph, zookeepers in Sichuan, China, have been feeding good ol' chicken soup to pandas Xiwang and Weiwei to help calm them during an increase in zoo visitors, and to give them a nutritional boost during the colder months. Turns out pandas don't just eat bamboo, they're known to eat insects and small birds occasionally in the wild.

It’s time to get clever! A picture is worth a thousand words, but those messages vary from person to person. I think this photo is pretty darn cute, and I already have a few quotes of my own bouncing around in my head!

I looooove webcams, and I've got some time to kill before the Fourth of July fun gets started. If you're also sitting around waiting for the food to be grilled, now's a great time to check out some live zoo action. To be fair, I've included a variety of creatures as well as three cams with baby animals .

Hungry, hungry pandas! These giant pandas made the trip from China's Sichuan province on Saturday and are settling into their new home at the Beijing Zoo. There were food and (safe) shelter shortages in their original home of Wolong Giant Panda Reserve post earthquake, but they look like they're getting plenty of that leafy green bamboo now.

Last week's horrible earthquake in China caused devastation across the country. The area is home to many pandas, both in the wild and at several zoos and reserves. These black-and-white creatures you see here are chomping on their fave diet of bamboo at the Chengdu Research Base in the Sichuan Province.
