Veterinary resident Matt Kinney, DVM, listens to the heart and lungs of giant panda cub Xiao Liwu Wednesday morning during a routine exam at the San Diego Zoo. The six-month-old cub, born on July 29, 2012, is growing and gaining weight as expected; he weighed 19.4 pounds (8.8kg) and measured 24.6 inches long (88 cm) this morning.
The exam also confirmed that he has new canine teeth emerging and has become more muscular and agile since he's been in an exhibit with climbing structures, uneven terrain and a moat. Despite his improved agility, Xiao Liwu has taken several tumbles while on view to the public at the Zoo and online on the panda cam. However, animal care staff expects the cub to take falls while he's learning to walk and climb.
