China's panda keepers recently shared a footage in which a cute panda cub played around its mother who dozed off, basked in warm sunlight.


In the footage, the panda cub could be seen snugging its mother, seemingly in an attempt to wake her for company, but somehow soon dropped the idea and decided to find some joy on its own. As they were resting by a pond, the cub dipped its furry paws into the water and started splashing for fun.

The footage was captured on the "iPanda" multimedia platform, which provides round-the-clock live broadcasts of the daily life and activities of pandas in the nature reserves of southwest China.

The "iPanda" channel is supported by the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda, a world leading institution for the breeding and conservation of one of China's national treasures. The center also established a global platform promoting international cooperation and exchanges involving 18 zoos from 16 countries and regions, as well as 39 domestic animal breeding institutions and more than 10 scientific research institutes.

The Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is a world-renowned institution for the ex-situ conservation of giant pandas, scientific research and breeding, public education, and tourism. The base is famous for its work in protecting and breeding giant pandas, red pandas, and other endangered wild animals exclusive to China.
