Our zoo will gradually increase the capacity of enrichment, and constantly change the cage structure for environmental enrichment. At the same time, we are constantly changing so as to improve animal welfare and make them happier in the "kindergarten". In this part of food, we should add complementary food to it to increase the amount of bamboo shoots fed. In addition, add some bamboo leaves appropriately, let them gradually touch the bamboo leaves, bite the bamboo leaves, slowly adapt to eating bamboo leaves, learn to eat bamboo leaves.
