Tai Shan Gets a Check-up at 7 Weeks Old Dr. Suzan Murray checks the cub's heart rate during the exam on Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2005. "His heart and lungs sound healthy," said Smithsonian's National Zoo on their Web site. The cub's muscles continue to develop every day. On Wednesday, Aug. 31, staff noted the cub "doing abdominal crunches as he works to move his body in a coordinated way." The following day, he was seen "rubbing his hind feet together and scratching his front leg with his back leg."
