35-year-old giant panda “Xinxing” is enjoying her “birthday dinner”.

CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- I am the most “senior” giant panda lady “Xinxing” and this September 16 is my 35th birthday. On my birthday, many people come here to celebrate this time and I feel so happy. Can I make two wishes? First, I don’t want to be old, and another, I don’t like losing weight. Please help me.

Became “international cyber-celebrity” at 10 years old

Kids are sharing the birthday cake of panda “Xinxing”.

In 1982, I was born in Baoxing County, Sichuan. However, the wild environment was too dangerous. Luckily, I was rescued by kind people and sent to the Chongqing Zoo, which is my home now.

Many people visit me every day and I know that I’m a super star. During the 1988 Winter Olympics, I went to Calgary, Canada and received 1.25 million people visiting me in 210 days, reaching the pinnacle of life early and becoming the “cyber-celebrity in panda cycle”.

But after that, I decided to have a low-profile life. Why? I became a mom. From 1992, I have given birth to 10 babies. At the age of 20, I gave birth to twins, setting a new record of giving birth to babies as an elderly panda. After at, I have 42 grandchildren and then 62 great-grandchildren. Speaking of that, it has been a long time since I saw them last time and I really miss them.
