Watch a Panda Cub Devour Her Birthday Cake

What happens when a giant panda cub is presented a birthday cake for her birthday?

Just like with a baby, it winds up on the floor.

Watch this Taiwan-born panda named Yuan Zai dive into her birthday cake, which zookeepers at Taipei Zoo made of apples, pineapples, carrots, and buns. She is the first giant panda cub born in Taiwan.

Yuan Zai also celebrated by playing a traditional crawling game. The game involves hanging cards with pictures on them. Babies grab at the pictures and the Chinese believe the picture grabbed first indicates a future career path or interest for the child.

Can anyone tell what Yuan Zai’s future career path will be?
