Everland's baby panda Shu Bao to make public debut this week

Everland will begin introducing five-month-old Shu Bao to visitors at Panda World on Thursday, with her first outdoor outing scheduled for Friday. Born on June 3 to Ai Bao and Le Bao, she is the fourth giant panda cub born in Korea. Everland will gradually extend her viewing hours and increase visitor numbers while prioritizing her health and adjustment. Her older sisters Rui Bao and Hui Bao are scheduled to move to China at the end of the year.

Shu Bao weighed 171 grams at birth and now weighs more than 9 kilograms.

She began taking her first wobbly steps at around 120 days old and has recently explored near her mother.

Before her debut, Shu Bao gradually became familiar with the outdoor enclosure by following Ai Bao there when visitors were absent.

Dec. 11 is set as the final day at Everland for Rui Bao and Hui Bao.

Visitors can see all five members of the panda family together throughout November and the beginning of December.

Shu Bao, the youngest member of Everland's giant panda family, will venture outside her indoor enclosure for the first time on Friday, at the age of five months.

Everland, operated by Samsung C&T Resort Group, announced Monday that Shu Bao, born on June 3, will begin making regular outings at Panda World starting Thursday. A female giant panda born naturally to parents Ai Bao and Le Bao, Shu Bao is the fourth giant panda cub born in Korea, following her older sisters Fu Bao and twin pandas Rui Bao and Hui Bao.

Weighing just 171 grams at birth, Shu Bao now weighs more than 9 kilograms and is growing steadily under the care of her mother Ai Bao, zookeepers and veterinarians. She began taking her first wobbly steps at around 120 days old. More recently, she has been moving around on her own near her mother and actively exploring her surroundings.

Ahead of her public debut, Shu Bao has been undergoing a gradual acclimation process to help her adjust to new spaces and environments. She has been expanding her range of activities little by little, following her mother from the indoor enclosure where she previously stayed to venture into the outdoor enclosure when no visitors are present to familiarize herself with the space. Throughout the process, Ai Bao has stayed close to her cub, helping her explore the unfamiliar environment with confidence.

For the time being, Everland plans to gradually extend Shu Bao's viewing hours and increase the number of visitors in stages, prioritizing her health and adjustment to the new environment.

Meanwhile, Shu Bao's older sisters Rui Bao and Hui Bao are scheduled to move to China at the end of the year, with Dec. 11 set as their final day at Everland. This means visitors will have an opportunity to see all five members of the panda family together throughout November and the beginning of December.

舒宝出生时体重171克，现在体重超过9公斤。

她大约在出生 120 天后开始蹒跚学步，最近一直在她妈妈附近探索。

在正式亮相之前，舒宝经常在没有游客的时候跟着爱宝到室外围栏里玩耍，逐渐熟悉了那里的环境。

12月11日是瑞宝和慧宝在爱宝乐园的最后一天。

游客可以在11月至12月初期间同时看到熊猫家族的五位成员。

爱宝乐园大熊猫家族中最年轻的成员舒宝，将在周五首次走出室内围栏，当时它只有五个月大。

由三星物产度假集团运营的爱宝乐园周一宣布，6月3日出生的雌性大熊猫舒宝将于本周四开始在熊猫世界进行定期巡游。舒宝是爱宝和乐宝自然分娩的后代，也是继福宝和双胞胎瑞宝、慧宝之后，韩国出生的第四只大熊猫幼崽。

舒宝出生时体重仅171克，如今体重已超过9公斤，在妈妈爱宝、饲养员和兽医的精心照料下稳步成长。她大约在120天大的时候开始蹒跚学步。最近，她已经能够独自在妈妈身边活动，并积极探索周围的环境。

在正式公开亮相之前，舒宝一直在接受循序渐进的适应过程，以帮助她适应新的空间和环境。她逐渐拓展自己的活动范围，跟随母亲从之前居住的室内围栏来到室外围栏，在没有游客的时候慢慢熟悉环境。在此过程中，爱宝始终陪伴在幼崽身边，帮助她自信地探索陌生的环境。

目前，爱宝乐园计划分阶段逐步延长舒宝的参观时间并增加游客数量，优先考虑舒宝的健康和对新环境的适应。

与此同时，舒宝的姐姐瑞宝和慧宝将于年底返回中国，12月11日是它们在爱宝乐园的最后一天。这意味着游客们将有机会在整个11月和12月初同时看到这五位熊猫家庭成员。
