Two of the biggest stars in the Taipei Zoo, the panda couple Tuantuan and Yuanyuan are being given special treatment during the dragon boat festival.
And visitors to the zoo are happy to see the pandas celebrating the traditional festival, in style.
These star attractions at the Taipei Zoo are savoring these mouth-watering "zongzi" with delight.
They're packed with bamboo, carrots and apples especially for the VIPs.
Zoo keepers creatively mixed the panda couple's favorite food in sticky rice, and then wrapped the delicacy in bamboo leaves.
But this food treat does not come on a silver platter. Tuantuan and Yuanyuan have to reach out for their lunch. But it appears the results are well worth their efforts.
Caught up in the festival atmosphere, the pandas gobble down the special cuisine with gusto putting table manners aside. But the visitors enjoy their antics with some hoping they could join in the feast.
Do you want to eat zongzi?
Yes.
