The oldest giant panda living in cage is set to challenge the world record for the animals' long life,
with her age said to be the same as a human being at least 100 years old.
Hong Kong's giant panda Jiajia, whose name means "good", will turn 37 this summer at the theme park
Ocean Park, matching the Guinness World Records title for the oldest panda survivor in cage-Du Du, who died
in 1999, aged 37.“Itis rare for pandas to live to this age," said Grant Abel, the park's director of animal care.
Born in the Chinese mainland in 1978, Jiajia was gifted to Hong Kong in 1999, along with another
panda, to mark the second anniversary of the city's handover from former colonial ruler Britain. She
weighs 80 kg and is considered to be in remarkably good health for her age, even though her eyesight
is severely impaired and her hearing has grown worse, says Paolo Martelli , the park's chief vet. Jiajia
takes medicines for high blood pressure and arthritis. She walks slowly and avoids the exhibition area
