Xin Xing or New Star was more than 130 human years, informed Chongqing zoo in South-Western China.
Xin Xing had 36 cubs on her own and has seen 156 descendants.
The death of Xin Xing was announced through social media. The zoo said that Xin Xing began to experience multiple troubles including bloating, oversleeping, coughing and other age related issues. Despite Zoo’s best efforts to save the “Hero Mother”, she has died, announced the zoo.
