A zoo in China has unveiled what are believed to be the first ever surviving panda triplets.
Staff at the Chimelong Safari Park in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou described the triple-birth as a miracle, given the panda's extremely low reproductive rate.
According to the China Conservation and Research Centre, giant panda Juxiao - whose name translates as smiling chrysanthemum - gave birth to three cubs on Tuesday, July 29.
The cubs are said to be the only panda triplets to have survived She delivered the first cub at 1.10am and the second cub at 3.47am. The third baby was successfully delivered at 4.34am. Staff said Juxiao was too exhausted to care for the cubs, who were moved to an incubator.
They have now been returned to Juxiao and the family are being monitored by an expert team 24 hours a day.
Incubators are being used to help the panda cubs survive In a statement, an official from the safari park said that the three were said to be the only panda triplets that have ever survived.
However, given the high mortality rates among young pandas experts tend only to class them has having "survived" once they reach six months.
Mother panda Juxiao was said to be exhausted If all three live beyond six months, their birth and survival will be considered a true miracle.
Their sex has not been disclosed and they have not yet been named publicly.
