Panda born at Tokyo zoo for first time in 24 years
Japan Giant Panda
Visitors watch male giant panda Ri Ri at Ueno Zoo in Tokyo Wednesday, June 27, 2012. The zoo announced Monday his female partner Shin Shin, who arrived from China with him in Feb, 2011, has shown signs of pregnancy. The zoo plans to suspend public viewing of Shin Shin from July 3 to monitor her closely. A zoo official said the status won't be confirmed until the birth of a baby because there are many cases that end in false pregnancy. (AP Photo/Shizuo Kambayashi)
