Tao Tao celebrated its first birthday on August 3, 2011. Wolong National Nature Reserve launched a training project of releasing baby pandas held in captivity to the wild since July 2003. Tao Tao, the first baby panda born in the training base, gained the ability to live in the wild. Weighing about 25 kilograms and developing normally, Tao Tao’s condition was much better than other baby pandas in captivity, especially in wild survival skills such as climbing, finding food and water, and figuring out directions. Growing up in Hetaopin Training Field of Wolong National Nature Reserve, Tao Tao experienced mudslides, blizzards and rainstorms. Therefore, he could adapt well to the environment of the training field. Click here for a video of his first year. Via CCTV, Giant Panda Zoo.
