No Sleep & No Sex For Yang Yang

Do not be mistaken. As much as my Chinese name is very close to 'Yang Yang', it is not me :)

Growing up in Singapore, whenever pandas are mentioned, we always know it's Yang Yang. Ok, maybe not growing up but it certainly is a familiar panda name.

China sure has been making a lot of money with 'renting' their pandas out. Even here in Memphis, we have Ya Ya and Le Le. Trouble is, in what condition will these animals go home? No sleep, no sex? These must be the only things out of China not ready to follow in the footsteps of her citizens to procreate... just like when they tried to introduce 'social enrichment' to Ya Ya (from Beijing) and Le Le (from Shanghai). Neither was interested in one another. A sniff or two and both headed towards towards the opposite direction. We know how those friendly Chinese are!!

According to a UK newspaper article, it's been so unseasonably warm in Vienna that the Pandas in the zoo are performing unusual acrobatic skills.
