Giant pandas are hard to breed and it is not common to raise both twins. The second one was much smaller and it took a lot of work to pull the little guy through. He was kept in an incubator and fed most of the time. Then they would switch him with the bigger twin and let mom have time with him. Mom was fine with that and some of the time both twins were in the incubator. It let her sleep while the twins were still being cared for.
We have some really talented people at the Toronto Zoo. They have done a lot to raise endangered animals for release to the wild. I should see if I can find articles and do posts about that.
