On May 5th, China welcomes Lixia, the “Start of Summer” solar term, yet the air remains refreshingly cool. I’ve come once again to see Mei Sheng, the giant panda. What’s on his mind as he enjoys his bamboo feast?
Mei Sheng, a male giant panda, was born on August 19, 2003, at the San Diego Zoo in the United States and returned to China on November 7, 2007. He currently resides at the Bifengxia Base of the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Ya’an, Sichuan.”
