This includes his official public debut at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, D.C. on Saturday. The adorable animal — technically a giant panda, or Ailuropoda melanoleuca— wasted no time getting his nap on in his new enclosure.
Bei Bei and his twin, who died shortly after birth, were conceived by artificial insemination. He can now be seen, sleeping or otherwise, at the National Zoo along with his parents, Tian Tian and Mei Xiang. Do not disturb, folks.
