Panda Party!

MoshPix: Birthday boy Tai Shan was presented with a multi-layered cake at the National Zoo on Thursday. For the giant panda's fourth birthday, the zoo put together an unusual frozen treat made of bamboo, shredded beets and beet juice. It took nearly two weeks to make. Check out photos of Tai Shan devouring his gift.
