Abandoned by his mother at 2 months old, and having to face bullying from other pandas growing up, now Qizai, the only brown panda in the world, is thriving and becoming a celebrity of the animal world!

Qizai, whose name means ‘the seventh son’ was found as a weak and neglected cub in a nature reserve in Qingling Mountains in Central China. Apparently, his mother disappeared into the jungle, but one thing is sure – she was black and white.

This poor animal was abandoned by his mother at 2 months old, and had to face bullying from other pandas growing up…

The motherless panda has always been different, so other pandas would steal his food, making his childhood really tough.

The sad days are over, and now the brown panda is thriving and becoming a celebrity of the animal world!

Meet Qizai, the world’s only brown panda!

Apparently, unlike Qizai, his mother was black and white, which makes the bear’s fur color’s mystery even more intriguing.

Most likely it’s due to something in his genes, and scientists can’t wait to find out what it is.

Qizai, now at age 7, has turned into a fine specimen, and experts are planning to find him a mate.

Meanwhile, Qizai is enjoying a good life at the Foping Panda Valley.

The animal has a personal care-taker, who plans his life around Qizai’s eating schedule, waking up at 6am and going to bed past midnight.

The celebrity panda now weighs more than 220 pounds and eats around 44 pounds of bamboo every day.

‘He is slower than the other pandas, but he is also cuter,’ Qizai’s keeper says.

If you want to go and say ‘hello’ to Qizai, you know where to find him…
