Jul 24 (NHK) - The giant panda cub at Tokyo's Ueno Zoo is growing steadily and starting to open her eyes.
The zoo's first panda cub in 5 years was born on June 12th.
She weighed 1,656 grams on Saturday -- an increase of more than 500 grams in 10 days.
A video taken on Saturday shows the cub is starting to open her eyes slightly.
Zoo officials say the cub started creeping forward and changing direction about a week ago. They say she is expected to fully open her eyes within a few days, and will be able to walk when she is 90 days old.
