動物園其他的動物一定很忌妒牠們新來的紅朋友。
這隻名叫「貓咪」的雄性小熊貓,剛剛從密西根州的賓德公園動物園搬到紐約布魯克林的展望公園動物園。牠一搬到新家,就奪走了其他動物的風采。
「貓咪」是野生動物保育協會飼養計畫中的成員,該計畫是要幫助受到威脅以及瀕臨絕種的物種,而小熊貓正瀕臨絕種。
「貓咪」的四肢是黑色的,毛茸茸的臉和身體是紅棕色的,耳朵是白色的,看起來很像一隻浣熊。
小熊貓的個性很溫馴,大部分時間都在睡覺。在南亞野生地區可以發現牠們的蹤影,牠們棲息於山上的樹林中。
展望公園動物園管理員說,這隻逗人喜愛的小熊貓很貪玩,喜歡爬樹和探索牠的新家。 (美聯社�翻譯:楊鴻泰)

The last time the BoJ raised interest rates was in 2007, but its war against deflation began in earnest in 2013 under then-prime minister Shinzo Abe. “Abenomics” combined generous government spending and central bank monetary easing. The BoJ spent vast amounts on bonds and other assets to pump liquidity into the
Have you ever wished for an extra hour to prepare for exams or finish homework? In some countries, people actually adjust their clocks to gain or lose an hour, all for the sake of Daylight Saving Time (DST). Specifically, clocks are set forward by an hour in March and then set back in November. One of the primary reasons for implementing DST is to make better use of natural daylight so that people can reduce energy consumption. The concept originated with Benjamin Franklin in 1784 and became widely adopted during World War I. Today, this system is in place
For the first time, the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has fined a company for improper disposal of its defunct satellite. The satellite cable company Dish Network was fined US$150,000 because it failed to move an old satellite that was no longer in operation to a safe distance from others currently being used. The FCC had asked Dish Network to move one of its older satellites, EchoStar-7, 186 miles further from the Earth. However, the satellite had only advanced 76 miles before it ran out of fuel at the end of its operational life in 2022.
