Snow Day for Tai Shan

Tai Shan, the two-year-old giant panda cub at the Smithsonian National Zoological Park, surveyed Washington D.C.’s first major snowfall from high in a tree.

Tai Shan should feel right at home in the cold snow—giant pandas are native to central China where snow is common in the winter.
