Giant panda Ba Si celebrates her 25th birthday - 100 in human year - at a panda park in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, yesterday. A zookeeper feeds her a cake from residents, and her crown says "Happy birthday." The panda is a park superstar, as she is able to shoot a basketball, lift weights, ride a bicycle and perform acrobatic stunts.
