Thrice as cute: giant panda triplets celebrate six months

A set of panda triplets, the world's only known surviving trio, celebrated their six-month birthday at the Chimelong Safari Park in Guangzhou city, south China's Guangdong province, on Friday.

The birth of the cubs in July 2014 was hailed as a "miracle", given the animals' notoriously low reproductive rate.

Chinese singer Li Yuchun was invited to takes photos of the giant panda triplets for the special event. The cubs also got a birthday cake from the singer.
