Cuteness alert, says Mandai Wildlife Reserve, releasing more images of Le Le, the first and only panda cub born in Singapore.

Earlier it had said: “Le Le’s cuteness is OFF THE CHARTS!”

And there’s no disputing that as the five-month-old cub looks set to be the star of the River Wonders exhibit, along with parents Kai Kai and Jia Jia.

Le Le has been working out at his "jungle gym",  improving his climbing skills and building up strength, the park said on Instagram.

In an earlier post it said: “As giant pandas are curious and playful by nature, we keep Le Le entertained and stimulated with fun enrichment items in his nursery.”

Le Le, weighing more than 12kg now, is usually out in the nursery at the Giant Panda Forest exhibit at 10:30am and 3:30pm. The viewing window ranges between 20 and 30 minutes, the park says on its website.

Of course, given the pandemic restrictions, admission is subject to safe management measures, it warns.

There were long queues when Le Le had first met adoring fans, at the end of 2021.

But as of Friday (Jan 28) afternoon, tickets were still available for the weekend and the Chinese New Year holidays next week.

Watch Le Le’s latest video here:

PHOTO: Singapore's very first giant panda cub Le Le (he has a name now!) is on his way to being quite the expert climber.
Born on August 14 2021, Le Le is now just under 5 months old. According to the Mandai Wildlife Group, the cub has been working hard to build up his strength and motor skills so that he's ready for his debut in the exhibit with his mom Jia Jia. In his play den, Le Le climbs strategically placed logs and gets his little mind working on enrichment toys provided by the care team.
Le Le now weighs in at a healthy 12.19 kg (as of January 26), and if you ask us, that sounds delightfully 'chonky'! Coo over more pictures of him being effortlessly cute.
Check him out hanging off a branch. Le Le seems to take after his father Kai Kai, who is often spotted lounging in a tree in his exhibit at River Wonders' Giant Panda Forest. [2]
