US-CHINA-ANIMALS-PANDA

Panda merchandise is seen inside a gift shop at the National Zoo on August 27, 2015 in Washington, DC. One of the two giant panda twins born at Washington's Smithsonian National Zoo over the weekend died on Wednesday, turning unexpected joy to tragedy in a matter of days. After an ultrasound revealed a possible pregnancy a week ago, zookeepers were greeted with another surprise Saturday when 17-year-old panda Mei Xiang gave birth to not one but two baby cubs.
